Not Sin in the Garden of Eden
What separates man/woman
from beasts is that humans
can choose between
immediate pleasures
and long-term goals.
The pigeon psychologist
tells me that pigeons
will delay gratification
for a reward,
meaning that either we
have bird brains or
birds have human brains.
Adam and Eve weren't alone
in the garden. There were
spirits everywhere, peeping
Toms, so to speak, watching
a new species make conscious choices
(if that is possible).
