Genesis 3

RE: Genesis 3
Drich: please learn the difference between "apart" and "a part". So similar, but they couldn't be more opposite in meaning.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

If you want to get technical about writing, things are not 'more' or 'less' opposite because 'opposite' is not comparative.

RE: Genesis 3
Indeed, however I was using figurative speech. Drich simply doesn't understand how words work.

And look; I used a split infinitive! Not to mention starting a sentence with a conjunction!

And since God just made these people and knows everything about them, and how they make choices, he knew what they would choose.

Theist answer: Free will no yes he wasn't he did surprise but he knows everything but the tree and the snake he loves you but he wants a choice you made the wrong choice God is always right leave me alone.

I was asking that for a reason. Thanks for laying out the maneuvering plot.

It's not often I wish people thought more like lawyers, but this is one of those times.
