God made people
Adam and Eve ate the apple when tempted by Satan
thus introducing original sin
Animals do not have a rational soul like we do, as they were not made in His image.
My user tag for you is absolutely on point, not gonna share what it is though because it’d lessen the effect somewhat.
Anyway, your inability to use basic grammar and punctuation is just so fucking perfect for the idiocy of what you write. And you not realising what an absolute fool you show everyone you are makes it even better, top tier schadenfreude.
Why did god make such a trap and place it within reach of his pets? Seems like really shitty pet ownership. This is the moral equivalent of having a pet rabbit and having ivy within nibble reach and then blaming the rabbit for eating the ivy.
How was it possible to have this “rationalness” prior to consuming from the tree of knowledge? They simply wouldn’t know any better and have no concept of consequences. How can you actually reason without knowing shit? Sure, god told them they would die, but how would they even know what death means? The humans had no prior experience with death up to this point! No human/thing had ever died, it was just them. It would be super abstract. Ever explained death to a child without actually showing them something dead?
And how else would you describe a lesser being kept in a curated garden? Pet seems like an extremely apt term.
Also none of this excuses the omnipotent and omniscient being from being a shitty owner. Why even make the tree if they knew humans were gonna fuck with it? Were they incapable of seeing this possible future? If eating that fruit was original sin, that’s a complete abdication of responsibility for: 1) creating the damn tree, 2) putting it in the garden where the human critters can get to it, and 3) creating a literal agent to psyop the humans into eating it. What a colossal fuck up for an all-powerful, all-knowing god. And that’s being generous. A more balanced take is that god is fucking evil for stacking the deck against humanity and then blaming them for it, knowing full well what was going to happen.
Lucifer had the audacity to talk back and have a different idea than his father, so he was kicked out… Forever.
Kicking out family for not doing what you personally want, then being angry that a bunch of the rest of the family decides to start ignoring you as they also do their own thing. One of the most narcissistic things you could do.
That’s one of the most Christian things I’ve ever seen. There’s no hate like Christian “love”.
But it’s all fake stories anyway so it doesn’t really matter. Even if it did… The Bible doesn’t mention Lucifer being cast out at all… The Isaiah 14 passages usually referenced for that actually reference the King of Babylon.
The story of Lucifer Morningstar being cast out of heaven actually comes from the epic poem Paradise Lost, written in 1667 by John Milton.
So if you believe that story then you would have to consider John Milton in 1667 to be equivalent to the various Councils of Nicaea deciding on what would be included in the Bible.
knowledge ≠ rationalness and it wasnt PHYSICAL death, it was spiritual death.
You didn’t answer the question. How can you reason without knowledge? How could adam and eve have rational souls before eating from the tree that gave them knowledge and before truly understanding the consequences?
God created satan as an angel of light, but he was corrupted by sin, especially the sin of pride
But god knew this was going to happen, right? Is god incapable of creating sinless beings? Is sin more powerful than god? Because it seems like shoddy craftsmanship to create something with a fatal flaw.

God also made the apple, Satan, and sin, in full knowledge of what would occur in Eden.
He’s kind of a jerk

we arent his “pets”, and we have a rational soul, so thats a false equivalence

What apple?
What is a rational soul and why don’t animals have them?
a soul that can choose between Good and evil, nonhumans werent created in the image of God, so they dont have it
You can’t divide morality in only good and evil. That’s dumb.
sorry, I oversimplified it
What God says is evil in the Bible is not in actuality evil, especially considering that the God of the Bible is evil.
So is evil defined by intention? Gay penguins aren’t evil because they aren’t choosing to be gay?
Evil is defined by God (in Bible).
So… being gay is evil, being disobedient to parents is evil, being Hindi is evil, and so on.
It’s pretty detached from “evil” as it is known today (or then for that matter).
they simply do not have a rational soul.
I’m not so sure humans do either given the state of the world
