Notice they were NOT enticed to eat from the tree of Life (which they could have done with no penalty),
just as people disregard eating from it today, in spite of God's offer to taste and see that the Lord is good.
Jesus IS that tree.
He even saw to it that He paid the price for us UPON a tree.
We aren't any different than A&E.
And they were NOT children put to some nasty test.
I always marvel at the despicable character God is painted into at AF.
You do know the snake still speaks to the children of Adam.
Just say NO to snakes.
If you're so concerned about the picture god is painted in, then throw your Bible out the window. It's that book and just about every other "holy" book that makes god look despicable. I said it before. I will say it again. We did not write that book, so don't hold us responsible for what we find therein.

NO they were not set up.
It was a test and they failed, just as we all fail to do what we know we ought to do.
Each one of us would have blown it, and don't say Adam and Eve must have been stupid- we would have done likewise.
It is foolish to blame God, when we ourselves swim in failure like a goldfish in a pond.
There's nothing I can say to this idiot that has not already been said. His fiat insistence on believing what clearly is not true is disingenuous.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
