    I thought everyone knew that Adam was placed in the garden with little or no brains. Before he ate the fruit he could not understand the choice or the consequences.
    Remember how he didn't know he was naked until he ate the fruit ie he could not recognize sin and had no conscience.
    Clearly Jesus was post Adam and thus had the benefit of the magic from the fruit.

    Okay, so Jesus was tempted as a man and avoided sin as a man. Jesus' Godself didn't play a role.

    Adam was tempted as a man and failed to avoid sin as a man.

    Why didn't God create Adam's manhood such that he was more like Jesus and consequently freely
    chose to not sin?

    Well that is a God question not a Kelly one in my opinion. All I know
    is when we were made in the image of God sin entered into humanity,
    when God put on humanity sin in humanity was defeated.

    Clearly not true, Adam understood death was going to happen, now
    how bad that was for everyone that followed, did he know that? I would
    say no, he didn't have a clue, it is much like what we have today, we
    do things thinking little of what can occur and people end up going
    through all manner of bad things, from broken and ended lives to
    broken and ended families and so on.

    Pick up a disease sexual or by some other means and cause birth
    defects, live on the government dime instilling into my kids they are
    owed a living off someone else’s work and effort, instill into my
    children a strong belief they are worthless and victims start or
    continue a blood feud with other people to name a couple. Not sure
    how far out into the next generations these things can go, but the
    point is that things that happen now can and do cause the next
    generations to deal with actions.
