Implying the apple is the forbidden fruit from the book of Genesis is a common misconception. The apple is just a modern day fruit adapted by generations of farming for the sake of larger produce.

No, you can’t have it.

IIRC apple was used more as a term for all fruit rather than a specific one

  • God: Don't eat this delicious-looking thing right in the middle of the garden I made for you! Don't even ask why.

  • Lucifer: you should try this fruit, Eve!

  • Eve and then Adam eat of the fruit and thus go from automatically obedient automatons to persons with knowledge about themselves and the world

  • God punishes Lucifer and Eve

  • The old men in charge of the church call Lucifer the ultimate evil and oppress women

Who's REALLY the villain here? 🤔
