If the first statement were true then Adam and Eve did not sin because they literally did not know right from wrong until eating the literal fruit of the knowledge of food and evil.

They literally didn’t exist. It’s a story made up by people to scare children.

It's a weird story though because the moral seems to be that even adults don't do what they're told. And sometimes your sister is hot.

Alternate take if you’re into it: “Sin” only exists in our mind, once we perceive it we create it. Naivety truly is bliss, knowledge is a curse.

But having knowledge also means you know how to do drugs and neat ways of fucking, so … win some lose some.

They were literally told what they were allowed and not allowed to do before they ate that fruit.

They literally did not know what they were doing was evil because they literally did not know right from wrong.

Yes, but they didn't understand that not following God's orders was bad. They weren't capable of making moral decisions because they hadn't eaten the fruit yet.

If you follow the story, it’s apparent that the end was engineered. And that the real villain was not the snake or adam nor eve but god itself

The serpent is a Promethean figure and is forever disfigured because of it.
