Is Christianity truly a monotheistic religion?

Au contraire

Aha. The tree itself was nothing special, but the consequences of eating from it are. I will explain:

In eating the fruit of the tree, Adam and Eve had sinned against God, in disobeying his word, correct? Thus the passage has often been interpreted as saying that since they sinned against God by eating the fruit of the tree, they became fully aware of their sin, and wanted to hide from each other, and against God, thus the feeling to clothe themselves. They thought it would bring them some protection, either physically or metaphorically in protection. As this probably sounds confusing as hell, I will further elaborate- Many would argue that in the fact that they were ashamed of their nudity because they had sinned. Once they sinned against God, their senses of morality became clearly defined. Morality exists to the point that we feel the obligation to cover ourselves in the presence of other people. They intrinsically became aware of what was good and evil, and found that in sinning, they lost their innocence, and could thus be seen as sexual objects towards each other...thus the need to cover themselves.

I've probably confused the hell out of you there (NPI).
