“Let the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil fall, soundless in the moldering woods.”
“This is perhaps what has made some suspect that the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil was really a banana.”
“But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat it; for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”
“How does the capacity to do evil exist, if that capacity is not within the creator as well? It’s just not possible. The fruit that Adam and Eve eat is from “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” Interesting. So according to Genesis the knowledge of good and evil existed before Adam and Eve ate the fruit and thereby gained access to that knowledge, and if the knowledge of good and evil existed, then good and evil existed as well, and it all came from God, the creator. Obviously. Also, God didn’t have to unleash suffering and death on everybody who ever lives forever and ever until the end of the world because two people ate a piece of fruit. He just felt like it.”
“Not evil. Not any more evil than the colored trees are good.Evil and good reside in the heart, not in trees and water.”
“If a tree falls in the woods, and nobody is around to hear it, and it hits a mime, does anyone care?”
