I've been thinking about Adam's choice.

1. Don't eat the fruit and stay in the garden of Eden.

or

2. Eat the fruit, go live in the dreary world where you can have sex with Eve.

Funny how in the films the lone and dreary world looked a lot like Utah.

Adam was a man. There was sex involved. You are really confused? :wink:

You have to wonder why Adam and Eve walked through Kansas and Colorado before deciding to stop and build an alter in Utah...

Their garments were made of skins and were probably the long-john style Gs. I'm imagining something like this.

Oh, and my pont was that Eve was the one guiding them out. She was the one celebrating freedom.
