- Why should not Adam take the blame for the Fall for human beings?
Adam is the creation of a strong, intelligent male. Adam should not take the blame because he first suppressed the urge to eat the fruit. He did remain rational and obey God's instruction at the beginning not until Eve had eaten the fruit, which comes to the second reason. Adam's love for Eve is more than anything, which stems not only from his own feelings but also from what God and angels told him to. Adam let Eve work alone because of love. Moreover, Adam knows that Eve is created to be his partner and mate. That is why Adam also ate the fruit. Firstly, because he loved Eve so much that he couldn't bear leaving Eve Fall, and secondly, he could not stand being left in paradise alone. In my opinion, Adam should not be blamed for sacrificing himself for his only companion. Last but not least, if Adam only knew Eve was too naive and might make a poor judgment, he would not let her go work alone. However, Adam was not aware of the crisis which might lead to, when he accepted to let Eve separate from himself.
