This is an address to the Original Sin. Eating the fruit of intelligence that is forbidden by God is a presumption. God gives away a boundless Heaven and orders only one thing, “Don’t eat from that tree”. But Eve goes too far and eats in order to be just like God himself. Thus God’s sending tyrants to rule the sinful men is
He even recognized this, himself, earlier in his retelling: “I, not in deed, but in effect, was the true murderer” (113). Time and time again, Frankenstein justified his complete inaction regarding the safety of his family with statements like, “I thought of pursuing the devil, but it would have been in vain” (99), or when it came to saving Justine from her execution, “a declaration would have been considered as the ravings of a madman and would not have exculpated her who suffered through me” (103).

And the Lord regretted having made the human on earth and was grieved to the heart”(Genesis 6). It is at this point that the Lord said, “I will wipe out the human race I created from the face of the earth, from human to cattle to crawling thing to the fowl of the heavens, for I regret that I have made them” (Genesis 6). This brought on the motivation to build the great boat. The Lord picked Noah because he “was a righteous man, he was blameless in his time” to build the ark. In the story of Gilgamesh, Utanapishtim told Gilgamesh “I will reveal to you, O Gilgamesh, a secret matter” (9), “Wreck
Man was created first , and woman created only to aid him. To me this does not convey complete justice on behalf of God. After the serpent fools Adam and Eve into eating from the forbidden tree, Adam is very quick to blame Eve despite the fact that he has eaten the fruit of his own accord. ‘The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree and I ate it’. Adam doesn’t face up to his own responsibility and tries to hang Eve for it.
and in a trip to Poland in August 2002 he likened another issue, abortion, to murder, an act of violence; he stated “Frequently, man lives as if God did not exist and even puts himself in God’s place… Rejecting divine law and moral principles, he openly attacks the family.” Ultimately, it is believed God is the only one responsible for life and death which is implied by his omnipotence and the fact that he is the creator. Conscience is another principle of Christian religion. Conscience is defined to be our ‘moral guide’, the instinct that tells us right from wrong, our reasoning. It
Perhaps we should start at the beginning, or at least very close to the beginning -- in Genesis 4. In this chapter we read about the first murder. Cain had offered an unacceptable sacrifice, and Cain was upset that God insisted that he do the right thing. In other words, Cain was peeved that he could not do his own thing. Cain decided to kill his brother rather than get right with God.
Perhaps this is why he killed his father. He may have blamed his father for the condemnation. Since he could not know whether or not Jesus raised the dead he chose nihilism. His whole life became one of cruelty. Since his life didn’t matter—neither did anyone else’s.
Since the Priestess of the Oracle of the Caves permitted this criminal act, no punishment had to be administered. Another example of criminal behavior in the culture was when Okonkwo disrespected the sacred Week of Peace by beating his second wife, Ojiugo, heavily. Ezeani, the priest of the earth goddess Ani, was the one to deal with Okonkwo. His actions were a great evil to the whole clan and it was said that everything could be jeopardized if the Week of Peace is broken. After this incident, people often said that he was a man with no respect for the gods of the clan.
People die because the disobedience of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. God had warned the first couple that violated God's law which resulted in a spiritual death “sin “but don’t eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, because on the day you eat from it, you will die!” Genesis 2:17. Spiritual death, like physical death, was passed on to their descendants, “In the past you were dead because you sinned and fought against God” Ephesians 2:1. “By one man sin entered the world, and death by sin, and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned” Romans
