RE: The evolution of Adam - Partaking of the fruit and feeling naked
Their sense of shame was the immediate response of a guilty conscience. Now, however, Adam and Eve both realized that they had done wrong, and so they contrived to cover themselves by sewing fig leaves together
It's almost a Rod Serling type twist how the tree of the knowledge of good and evil turned out to not be some supernatural entity that would elevate mankind to the level of his creator. No, it was just a beautiful tree with some tasty fruit like all the rest. The knowledge of good and evil came about in a purely natural way. They had to experience and partake in evil in order to have any knowledge of it. And, unfortunately, this knowledge had the absolute opposite effect than what they were lead to believe! Que Twilight Zone music.
