In the garden of Eden, Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge and were consequently kicked out.
As I understand it, this is the "Sin" for which Christianity is based (feel free to correct me if am wrong).
Please explain to me the significance of eating the fruit and why it made God so angry - angry enough to kick us, those who were made in his image and who he loved more than the angels, out of Eden/Heaven (?).
Also please explain to me what would have happened if Adam/Eve did not eat the fruit (condemning us all to hell and making his son Jesus to suffer in our place). What is the tree of knowledge and why did God want us to stay away? Did we not know what good/evil was before taking the fruit?
Much thanks and obviously I do not know as much as some people on this forum about the Bible/Christianity so please correct me on any details/whatever I get wrong and I'm looking forward to your replies.
