Default The Original Sin. (Religion)

Now, in the bible it talks of 'Adam' and 'Eve' in the Garden of Eden. Most of us know this story, and that Eve ate the forbidden apple and both her and adam got banished from the garden and forced to live on earth.

Now, I wish to note something here, I really do believe this to be a metaphor, it wasn't a sin. Eve didn't 'sin' by going after the apple, instead she wanted the apple, not because she wanted to disobey, but because it was something she couldn't have. It's a flaw of human nature, but it's what makes us human.

Eve didn't sin, instead she followed her instinct, which led to her and adam's demise.
-> All Humans have flaws, but that doesn't make them bad.

Also the apple can be seen as not an apple, but as 'intelligence.' Eve wanted to know how things worked so grasped after this 'information.' and was caught by god, it's literally an old version of exactly what's going on today!
