James, I see that you are suffering from food fixation these days, are you eating? Forbidden fruit? Okay, I'll bite. The forbidden fruit in the Bible was from the tree of "knowledge of good and evil". What has this got to do with an animal heart? Let's go literal...it was real fruit on a real tree. Adam and Eve warned to abstain. They ate...they gained knowledge of good and evil. The world hits the skids. Let's go figurative. The fruit doesn't exist. The couple are merely challenged to obey God. They disobeyed, the world hits the skids. Let's go non-religous. The fruit doesn't exist. Adam and Eve didn't exist. God doesn't exist. The world hits the skids anyhow. Vicki p.s. you aren't fasting are you? I'm serious.

Hello Vicki,
A number of very good observations. No, I am not fasting. I do think that I think about food way too often however, I think its my way of diverting my attention away from sources of stress. It sort of works, but really I need to address the source.Some people clean to divert there attention. Some seek company of others, some seek sex, bungee jump, gamble, drink, some seek to control others, some work themselves to the bone.I worry and obscess about what type of food to eat.

Most people charge for this...like $60-90/hour, and have a licence. Today I felt like I could have been put in a straight jacket. (maybe a bit exaggerated)But, nothing that a good walk could fix, and some serious internet surfing.

Victoria wench of the West,Defile the Forum, I dare say, even The Garden of Eden? I am hurt by such an accusation. I simply offered something that would surely bring you joy and completeness. A simple taste will convert you to the pleasures found within the whole of your tastebuds. My breast does sigh for the aching you did cause,
Ramona

My dear james,But that would depend upon the situation, would it not? A timely scream would cause pleasure, while a laugh would only bring consternation. Ah, but I am only a disguised snake in the grass. Ramona

Ramona, unrepentant Queen of the Deep South! Why must thee work thy aching bossom into the text of thy posts whenever the chance arises? And what are my tastes to thee, wench? Must thee tarnish this intellectual CHAT ROOM with inane cyber infomercials for what purpose love? Repent, oh capitalist harpie! Victoria

Victoria, Wench of the snow-laden West!!!Closest to my heaving bosoms lies a heart that aches, leaps, and purrs. Truly you of all, would know and understand. Excuse my err, for I thought we were sisters in our needs and desires. Chat room?? My cheeks flush, for I did lapse and thought this was a "cat room." "Meow :-) " My infomercials were merely an attempt at seductress for another forbidden fruit. Icky dead animal flesh. But the serpent was unable to receive the necessary bite into the sweetest of all fruits. Ah, but you were tempted with creampuffs. There is hope indeed for Lucifera, the capitalist kosher piglet. Ramona

Ramona! Shameless pork merchant of Le Chat room! It is always about your bossoms, tart! Tis aching! Tis heaving! Have thee no shame? Why must thee speak endlessly and so cravenly about thy bossoms, dear? Are thee not content? Beguiling temptress! Speak no more of cream puffs! Are thee out to see me fall in this public place, begging and pandering after promises (or are they threats?)of creamy delights? Doth thee desire to see me slithering about on my belly shouting give me! Give me! Give me more! Huh? Immodest orchid! I beseech thee, temper thy tongue or face my wrath! What are the peasants 2think of this? Their ladies fair, engaged in revelries before their public selves? 'Tis folly! We shall lose their servantly affection and adoration then who will lick our boots, love? Thus spake fair Victoria

My needs will never be sufficiently satisfied, for I always crave more, More, MORE!!My heart did leap with joy at the temptation you did feel when I made mention of my creampuffs. Oh, they are so sweet and tasty. I picture you now, licking your satisfied lips, hoping for only a remembrance. Yes, you will slither on your belly...serpent. My dearest rosebud, merrymaking and joy does satisfy our souls. Why deprive yourself, a spirited mare? Would you prefer to serve your days as a morose prude? Ah, dear one, I know much better the stirrings of your heart, than you. I am certain, you then shall have your black leather boots licked until you are fully content, when you free yourself to your private desires. With affection, Ramona

Curious Queen! Thee so cravenly display thyself a bottomless pit of passionate need in this public place whilst thee know all the while neither mare nor stud, peasant nor royal hath strength or endurance enough to quench thy thirst! Why do thee even try, love? My boots, and their licking, are not worthy conversation for peasant eyes! Yet, I shall hold out my precious boot a little while longer and linger, should some leather-loving knave desire contentment at my feet! Oh humble peasants, they do love the taste of leather! How it pleases me to feed them! Here, sweet orchid, while no one looks on...partake of a toe! Thus spake the fair and precious,
Victoria

My dear Rosebud,How clearly you understand my humor and did cause me to laugh heartier than I have in a great while. Me, partake of your toe? The lashes you will receive for such a comment. The hot wax you shall have dripped upon your supple shoulders. The peasants would not be able to endure the torture that would be yours alone, for such a defiant comment. Oh the pleasure in your screams for mercy. But wench in leather and lace, you know me to be a cruel Master. Fair you may be, but also well disciplined at my hand. Ramona - your cruel Mistress

Ramona dear, A hearty laugh is good for thy soul! Thou didst remember to unlace thy corset before thy laughter did thee not? I see thou thinkst me a fool! Submit to THEE? Twas six months and six months more that I was subjected to daily baths of fragrant oils, applied by studly knaves, to heal the scars from last we did meet! Ah! Sweet lavendar and roses and willing knaves! Hmmm...How many lashes, love? Thus spake the fair and awesome,
Victoria

My Rose petal with bouquet of sweetness,I must laugh even heartier than before. I know not if you are a liar or a deniar. It was not my discipline that would cause you such need for knaves, but your wicked and insatiable appetite for kosher dills they do bring. But, this mistress is an understanding one, for I too have a strong weakness for the same. As for the knaves, ahh the smell of musk does cause my head to spin in ecstasy. But the touch of their bodies do cause my entire being to quiver. Alas, I must admit a fondness for one knave. He is greater than the sum of the rest......
I must end this letter for I find myself daydreaming of this handsome gentleman. Ramona

This is a new one on me. I've heard of the Arnold Murray doctrine that the sin of Eve was having relations with Satan, however, that also opens up the question of whether Adam also did. The primary Hebrew root word for fruit is PAW-RAW'(Strongs #6509) meaning bring forth. The specific word for fruit as mentioned in the passages you refer to is PER-EE' (Strongs #6529) meaning real fruit and specifically fig. It can also include the bough.It think the Jewish community would have a fit if it was told a theory such as this one. The Bible says death came into the world as a RESULT of sin, not the other way. People have been attempting to find fault with the Bible for thousands of years. In one sense this is a futile exercise. In the longer scheme of it however, a lot of these people become believers. Sometimes we have to bang our heads against the wall for years before we realize that it hurts. God bless, J

Hello,
No, I didn't think that the statement about forbidden fruit had anything to do with finding fault. I think people often come away with far out impressions about what they think the pages contain. The idea that the forbidden fruit is probably as far out there as a lot of other ideas that people promote using the bible. There are those that believe that the angels that fell from heaven are space aliens that appear in ufos. There are those that believe that Sung young moon is the lord of the second advent. There are those that see the bible as condemning all homosexual relationships. There are those that see the celebate lifestyle as being the ultimate expression of boundless love. Some see anglo-isrealism. Some see spiritualism in the prophets.
