If you have nothing on which to base nor compare an experience with, how can you judge it or judge the alternatives. That said, God was trying to tell man that he should trust him and understand that he had his best interests at heart.

It is a truly interesting and important philosophical discussion.

Yes, that is an interesting thought. If you don’t know the opposite, can you really know what you have? I guess they quickly did afterwards…

In view two it states “They already knew the good, and experienced it on a daily basis.” Could it be that this is only half true? Yes they experienced good on a daily basis but did they really already know good? To them wasn’t it the norm and they had nothing to compare it with, can not knowing evil mean that they really didn’t know good but it was the natural state? I don’t know, just a thought I had.

Thanks Geff. I enjoy writing, so putting the blog together is fun, and helps me to clarify my thinking.
