So, god didn't:
Put the Tree of Knowledge in an easy-to-reach place?
Do a piss poor job of explaining why it should be avoided?
Create the serpent who tempted Eve?
Decided the only fit punishment wasn't just to exile Adam and Eve, but curse the entire species?
Face it, it's an idiotic story, one which only highlights how juvenile the myth is. Any person with a brain knows to put things out of reach of children, which is what Adam and Eve essentially were in their naivety. The supreme being really aught to have had the foresight to not put his precious Tree of Knowledge in the same room as them if it was so important.
Please by all means give me the Biblical references that shows Adam and Eve were child like, your assumptions will not be accepted.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
