But then did Adam and Eve understand the consequences? God warned them that they would die, but then as many Christians argue, death didn't exist until after the fall, so they'd have no concept of death. On the other hand the serpent described something they could understand i.e. being like God. I think what i'm trying to ask is did they really have a choice?
