"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

WHY I Desire To Experience Good & Evil

An Intimate Knowledge & Experience With Good & Evil
Genesis 3:5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
1) Serpents Lie About GOD to Humanity (Eve)

A. God Lies - Contradicts God "will SURELY not die."
God just lied to you Eve! He's holding humanity back from improving themselves. From came creative powers and decisions. Liberate yourself!
But God said double verb emphasis in Hebrew "dying you shall die"
B. You are Not Made In God's Image. (Serpent isn't)
God lied! HE in fact held back the most important part of the "image".
Therefore;
C. It's Most Beneficial Not To Believe God.
If you eat the forbidden fruit.
Eyes will be opened - Liberated, see more clearly. GOD DUPES HUMANITY. It's a grand Delusion! You can gain knowledge and wisdom apart from God, if you pursue the opportunities.
Will be like God - He's holding back his key to success. Humans have incredible creative ideas and power. We are gods. Just realize it.
Know both good and evil - Knowledge and experience are power. Indulging in evil is power, it gains human insight. Deny no experience! Try it all - seek every last experience!

"Know Good and Evil" Meaning of KNOW. ??
Hebrew Know - יָדַע YADA - Verb.
Means to experience, to understand, to bring forth,
Serpents View of God.
1) God is Evil & Good.
God knows, experiences, and brings forth both Good and Evil. Typical ancient Pagan view of vindictive, petulant deities. This God is no different... like all others. God does some good, but is the cause of much evil in the world. Humanity should understand this, we are better than a God of evil. We are like God in Good, but we are unlike God in evil, we are better. God expressed Deceit & Selfishness by trying to knowlege to himself.
2) God stands in the way of Human enlightenment. Prefers their naivete!
Prefers unknowing, not understanding, not seeing, eyes shut puppets with little knowledge.
3) Humans Can Break the Boundary. Be Gods equally Creative as God.
4) God uses threats to gain Compliance.

Result of Human ingenuity
1. Relationship with Environment Broken 3:17-19
2. Relationship between Men and Women Strained 3:16
3. Relationship With God Distanced. 3:22-24
4. Free Will became a source of too many selfish and evil desires and acts.
5. Following Human Wisdom is Always a possible Choice. All actions have significant consequences, many of which we desire not to bear!

Adam and Eve Got exactly what they wanted. An intimate knowledge of both Good and Evil.
