Context: I sometimes hear the argument that god explicitly told Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit, the same way a parent tells its child not to stick things or touch electrical outlets. So god forcing the two of them to have children and dooming every human ever since is perfectly justified.

    I love the Gnostic response that the “serpent” was actually Sophia, who was giving knowledge to Adam and Eve because Yahweh was being an immature, narcissistic dick.
