>>> Adam was punished for taking an apple from the tree of Knowledge!<<<

Not exactly. Adam's main job was to explore creation and identify all that he observed. So in that sense he was the first scientist. He was forbidden one area only ... Don't try to claim intelligence of "good and evil" because you will screw it up. Adam was not qualified to define morality.

It was one specific area ... tree of knowledge of good and evil.

We are still trying to legislate morality and look how it screws us up.

I understand why that is a problem for people and since I am not a religious scholar, I'd prefer to leave it at that.
