The idea that man fell while in God's created Paradise seems asinine to me. As if one whispered to another, “you know, we could become Gods ourselves if we broke out of this shit hole!”
But if God's created Paradise was in fact “paradise”, why would anybody have wanted to leave? A seemingly more powerful argument is how in bloody hell could anybody have known or even conceived of anything better (like being his own God*) if everything was already perfectly paradisal?
How then are we to be assured that heaven in the afterlife will not simply revert back to the same supposed “hell” we find ourselves in now?
*Though after watching the movie Bruce Almighty, why in God's name (pun intended) would ANYBODY want to be HIM?
