#the fall of man is a metaphor about human imperfection. its fine. nobody needs to repent

[spitblaze]

a catholic found my 'human bodies are flawed we are not perfect in gods image' and said some shit like 'its because HUMANS are flawed and committed ORIGINAL SIN and now we're STILL PAYING FOR IT' which leads me to the next question. why was it so bad that we obtained knowledge and morality. why was it so fuckin vital to god that we remain ignorant and unquestioning. why is the act of elevating ourselves above the rank of 'glorified pet' so horrific that we still pay for it to this day in the form of bodies that fail and die. and why do you agree that it was bad. and why do you think that judaism, the religion where knowledge and questioning and debate and interpretation are foundational to worship and study, does not use the idea that humans are inherently perfect to guilt and scare people into obedience for a sin that you did not commit? would you punish a child for the sins of their parent? if so, why? what's wrong with you??
