When it says the Tree of All Knowledge it was actually talking about all knowledge. That includes sin, obediance, weather patterns, breeding patterns of the afircan spotted treeslug, ect

Bullshit. The fruit gave them nothing. I was agreeing with Pern in the sense that they came to know good and evil through the tree, but it wasn't the tree itself that gave them the knowledge, it was the act of disobeying God. By disobeying God, they came to know sin, not by eating a magical fruit.

I have a question, here. Adam and Eve obviously didn't--COULDN'T know the difference between right and wrong, because only God possessed that information, right? How does God justify tempting them with the tree at all and expecting them not to eat it?
And don't give me any crap about Satan tempting them to eat it. If God really didn't want them to eat it, he wouldn't've put it in the Garden. He would've put it out of their reach, like any good parent.
