Moreover, this world is not only limited to trials and obligations. It has many beautiful aspects, flavors and treats for them. These treats can whether distract from right path and sometimes lead to God's pleasure if right decisions are made according to God's rules and regulations written in His Holy Book.

Its a blessing because if the incidents had turned out different, human race wouldn't be where it is right now. But if Eve hadn't ate the apple we would've still been thriving happily in heaven.

I often think that when I get to heaven, I want to ask the Almighty about this whole "Free Will" thing... The human race was sinless and living in paradise. I know He wants us to choose Him as our free choice, but I'd be just as happy with perfection in the Garden.underthe_cloudyskies wrote: ↑29 Jul 2020, 08:12 We actually discussed this in class once and I feel torn between the two opinions.

Actually, the universe was completely made for a long time before Adam and Eve sinned. They were cast out of paradise into the world as consequence for their sin and to prevent them from compounding that sin by eating the fruit from the Tree of Life.shamayelnur wrote: ↑05 Aug 2020, 19:00 Sending them away from the Garden seems like a punishment to me for their disobedience to God. Thus, a curse in some form. The universe was made after that, which I see as a worse place than the paradise of course. So, I feel it was a curse with a scope of asking for forgiveness.
