fruit of knowledge, "to know" is often a way to describe sex in the bible. Or maybe it literally just means knwoeldge of sex
we know:
1. Eve had some knowledge of morality before the fruit was eaten (had some desire to obey God)
2. Only after eating the fruit did Adam and Eve see their gentialia as something to cover
3. By eating the fruit Adam and Eve became "like [God]" (able to create life)
4. Only after the fruit was eaten did God tell Adam and Eve to have sex
This seems to be the only interpretation of the story that makes any sense.

The fruit represents knowledge of good and evil as per the story

>>17923858 (OP)
I also thought that

>>17923858 (OP)
like before the fruit they were kind of like children (not knowing right from wrong)
then eve tempted adam

one aspect about sex that doesn't really get talked about:
>it'd be super rude to do sex when other people are around

>>17923869
that sounds like a "yes" to the sex thing
>>17923874

Could be, it is an allegory of some sort because it is impossible to be literally true

who cares

hey that's just Jack Chick's God with a shnoz

The Fruit didn't allow them to recognize Good and Evil as moral values

The Fruit haves them the ability to learn from experience, the only way to gain knowledge

If you lived for ever, and lived through everything, you gain knowledge about everything and become God

Or you can interpret as Moral values and end it there, it's the same in practice
