This is the result of ‘The Fall’. This is the original pride and prejudice story but without all the chick-flick innuendo. In the Garden of Eden the slippery lie maker becomes a talking snake, telling treacherous stories about the Creator. If I could ask Adam and Eve one question I would ask them, why they ever thought a listening to a snake that could talk would be a good idea, let alone believing what he said. Sheesh! I’m curious though did any dog or cat talk as well before sin entered the picture or just stupid snakes.

What this initial introduction to sin and deception shows us though is that Adam and Eve’s first problem was self-deception long before serpentine-deception. Satan just greased the tracks of their own four- wheeled delusion
