<< What was that Original Sin and why is was it so signifigant? Sure, they
ate an
apple, right? But which one? From which tree? That's right, kids, from
"the
fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil". And why were they
kicked
out of paradise? Let's look at the actual quote:
"And the Lord God said, `Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know
good
and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of
life,
and eat, and live forever:
"Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the
ground from whence he was taken." --Genesis 3:22-23 (KJV) >>

the major problem with the original sin is that they were told not to eat the
fruit of the tree before they even had knowledge of good and bad. they did
not know it was bad to break an order from god because they didnt know good
and bad!
