Adam and Eve's IQ

 Jesus said you must become as trusting as a child to be able to enter His kingdom.
Little children have not learned to be guileful. They are humble.
To be "Childlike" carries a different connotation than "Childishness".  
The former is admired in adults while the latter is scorned.

I was thinking about this thread and my buddy at work came to my mind.
We were considering one of the wise asses there,who we deal with, and Scotty said,
"I think I may be smarter than I actually am, and sometimes find out that I might be.
It is better than thinking one is smart and finding out later that you aren't"

Have you actually ever really been around children?
Aside from having one of my own, I lead a Girl Scout troop of 14 girls, and volunteer at the local school twice a week.  I've also actually taught art class to grade school age kids for 2 years (another volunteer position).

Children are full of guile by the age of 2 or 3  at the LATEST!  And I'm not making it up. Studies show that children start to learn to lie at 6 months old, about. Ever see a one year old pretend cry, stop, look around to see they have any attention, then cry louder?  Yes, little children are guileful, and some are very able liars, tricksters, and masters of manipulating adults.  And this isn't just some kids, this is just how human children are.

One more point docked from your holy book for "God" completely misunderstanding how his own creations function (yet again).

So are only under 6 month old babies really safe from hell then? Once they learn guile and the first time they trick or lie to their parents, they are then fully accountable to God, right? 

 I mean, God did kill all the firstborn Egyptian kids, some of those were very little.  Did they go to heaven or hell, since their parents were not believers and neither were they?  What about the older kids, then, the 12 and 13 year olds, surely even by your messed up measure, they are old enough to be held accountable.  Did god kill a bunch of kids, condemning most or all of them to hell, himself?  Well shit, it looks like in your story book that yes, yes he did!
