Whenever I'm in the garden with my wife she complains about the flying insects.
Couldn't put up with that every day.

So you are saying that God made eve look sexy purely for his own enjoyment? And those reproductive parts were only added later? Or are you saying we would still be having sex but not know how good it feels?
I'm pretty sure that is what Grampy Booby believes.

They don't realise they are naked until after eating the apple, it's how they're found out.
The wearing of clothes is actually only necessary when humans live in large groups with strangers and you don't want to give the wrong signals.
-Removed-No, I do not think that is what it means. Its kind of obvious that you are naked when you are naked. Its not like they would not be able to see each other. What they perceived after they ate the apple was that nakedness was wrong.
Think of it like this: a one year old child will know perfectly well when they are naked and when someone else is naked. They will be able to perceive it. They will not be bothered by it or see it as morally wrong until they grow up a bit.

404.
God made man in His image; among other 'ins' was the 'in' of free will.
Man was given free will to choose between two systems: the one he was created into, Life, and the one he was tricked/pussy-whipped into, the ...[text shortened]... sed Satan's deceit to bring salvation to all mankind.
At least, for those who are interested.[/b]

But luckily there are many people here who do believe in the story of Adam and Eve, so perhaps they could shine some light into out blackened eyes.
