Religion?

Oh, when I said "verse by verse," I meant that I wrote the verse number by each interpretation. My teacher didn't mention anything about verse 5. However, I think the interpretation is similar to the one next to verse 23 (that's why I think he didn't mention it).

I really liked this post. I can definitely tell you did your research! Also, I could be wrong, but I think Specs112 was giving you a compliment but also basically saying that the point you were trying to make can be made (and was made) without even having to include so much detail. But again, I do feel that such detail is definitely necessary for good discussion.

Thank-you; I'm not sure if he was complimenting, or commenting, but I'm glad you liked it. When it comes to detail, there's really very little. I could talk about it for days, and have done in the past.

You have to sacrifice delight (Eden) in order to become experienced. Notice that this myth never says that Adam and his woman sinned. They became experienced.

Ignorance is bliss?

Ignorance is bliss?

Usually, but then there are things like progressive disease. Or being ignorant of destructive personality traits. Not bliss at all.

I would like to punch in the face anyone who endorses the idea that ignorance is bliss as a positive thing.
