Think about it this way--in the Garden of Eden, do you honestly think Eve would have eaten the apple if she didn't have any idea it was there? The snake tempted her, made her believe it was more than what God told her it was. The snake convinced her to believe that it wasn't temptation, but true fate, and that if she ate the apple, everything would be okay. She didn't listen to God because she dealt with temptation, and if you get rid of the temptation, how can you defy what you know is right? You don't know anything else unless you've been tempted to be taught so. Why should you start now?
