My favorite Bible passage is Eve eating the fruit of knowledge. She knew what it meant -- mortality, defiance of all-powerful God, knowledge of good and evil. She eats it anyway. Eve's great gift to us is free will.

Then Adam comes upon her, sees she's eaten the fruit. He too knows what it means -- Eve will die. Then he eats the fruit too, to die with her rather than live without her. Adam's great gift to us is love.
