Of course they didn't. They didn't yet have the knowledge of good and evil. They didn't know that death was something to be avoided so they had no particular reason to eat from the Tree of Life.

The only political point I make is that the Left interprets the words of Jesus as arguably Marxist.
You keep saying "arguably" but you never make an argument. An assertion is not an argument.
​
I don't think you have a clue what Marxism is. You just use it as a swear-word. I have never, ever, in any way, shape or form advocated Marxism. I don't think I have ever made a single comment in favor of Marxism. Even if you did have an argument against Marxism, it would not be an argument against anything I have said.

Socialism is what Jesus taught.

Oh they knew WHAT the knowledge of good and evll was, they did have basic intellectual knowledge...
The Bible says they didn't. That's why God had to explain the consequences to them - pain in childbirth, hating snakes, sweaty brows, etc.

If I was thinking of perpetuating my legacy and realize I may have to defend my modest gains against the hungry hordes, I too might be scared.
Think of how the hungry hordes must feel.

We're speeding down the highway toward the bridge and the bridge is out - and we're arguing about how much we should slow down.
