idk man. they were in heaven and god was like “look you can have everything you desire, just stay away from this one single tree. ok? this is my tree. you will get literally everything you wish for, at your fingertips, immediately, except this one fucking tree. can you do that?”
and they went “nah lol”
and they went “nah lol”
Any one who’s raised kids knows that the moment they created that one restriction, it set up a fascination with that tree. Curiosity is like that. The more they remind themselves they can’t, the more they wonder.
All the other stuff? Boring. Old news.
More over, they were literally the definition of ignorant. They had no understanding of good,evil, or sin; only that they were told not to.
Like toddlers. Except instead of teaching toddlers to behave, he kicked them out of the home, disowns them and says “good luck, fuck off, and oh if you come back a giant flaming sword will go up your ass.”
