Genesis 3
Hm... temptation. Blaming others instead of taking responsibility. (Like childbirth wouldn't already have hurt? But maybe it wouldn't have, I guess You can do anything You want). Shame--trying to hide from God. But he already knows. Why did You even ask where they were--didn't You already know? Or did You just want to hear them say it, force them to recognize what they'd done? Well, sort of. Not sure they--or we--could ever really understand. So, we were created to be good and pure. Our deepest nature is to be good. But since the Fall, it's been much easier to do evil--as evil is always easier, and can come about just by neglect, whereas you have to work at being good because of the conflicting, overlapping temptation to do evil (i.e. take the easy way out). Make sense? Not sure it says what I'm trying to say, what else is new.
