Too bad life isn't that way. Hey wait a minute I guess it is kinda. There are many second chances. I recommend taking the journey and if you don’t like the ending try again.

At least there is a sense of drama instead of just a fairytale. And really is on more to blame than the other? It does though seem that Eve got shafted here. (no pun intended) After all she was just being obedient to her hubby wasn't she? I like this ending better than the journey I chose the first time I read through.

She was clearly indecisive and was experiencing some inner conflict. She neither encouraged or discouraged him from any action. Personally I don't really think the punishment fits the 'crime'... come to think of it, I feel the same way about the actual Genesis account. Peace, Love, -David- “Her eyes looked glazed and he could not make out her thoughts.”

The punishment is not for feeling the temptation, it was for failing to be the helpmate to Adam she was designed to be. When Adam looked to her for help in taking the right decision, in overcoming temptation, she turned away.

You made a familiar story very interesting by pondering some of the choices that had to have been made in the original history. "What if I had been there? What would I have done? What would be the outcome?" I found it interesting that in many ways, no matter the choices made, the end is similar - humankind is estranged from God, their Creator and One with whom they had once enjoyed perfect relationship. I guess one could say there remains to this day, if you will, a "missing link" in this relationship, a void that Pascal called the God-shaped whole in every person's heart. Super idea for your project. Really fascinating approach. I love these kinds of things that make you think more deeply through the familiar. Very nice!

I believe that Adam was supposed to be accountable for his actions as it is he who received the command not to eat from the fruit. Eve, in this story, should in no way be accountable for Adam's deed nor bear punishment for his actions. Temptation is not a sin, giving in to temptation is. She fled from temptation in this case. Just my two cents. - David Punishment was inevitable?

Thanks Sukaina, for letting me know of the link. I really think you guys have given this a great shot. And when you come down to it, temptation is one great flaw of Man, and I guess that's where it originated. Whatever the source, temptation has been one thing that Man has not been able to get rid of, and ofen this is what brings about the events and their sudden turn in our lives. Well thought out, well planned.... You've given the reader a chance to open his/her mind up to new ideas and possibilities, to move out of the box with your out of the box idea!
