It was an assumption based upon the skant information that we have about the whole circumstances of the situation back then. Not such a shocking matter. People do this all the time, including in how they read the Bible.(that was easy, so I answer you first )
as you say: it's an assumption. This can't count as Bible, though.
For instance, assuming Genesis was meant to be read like a book of history and science in the modern sense of those disciplines. That's a major assumption, and not one supported by what we know of ancient cultures. Yet entire theologies and church denominations are based upon them.
So I wouldn't make too big of a deal that I admit there are assumptions being made. At least it's being honest, whereas others are not about the same thing.
Then they were created as homeless adults by God? "In my father's house, there are many rooms." Is this because he realized after Eden that making Adam and Eve homeless was not such a good idea, consider it led them to a life a crime out on the streets?maybe they didn't have one.
Which of course adds a considerable amount of weight to it, since my reasoning is sound.according to you.
You mean, fun, with one serious temptation placed right in the middle of the playground, with a spotlight on it, and the teacher's instructions, "Don't touch this" given to them? Hmmm... what did he think was going to happen? What would any parent with any child imagine would happen in a similar setup?for me it's a story of love. God places them in paradise to enjoy. 1 rule to follow... and the rest of it: fun.
You can read it as a fun story, too.
If there was a betting pool going on with the angels watching this whole thing, I'm pretty sure no one lost the bet.
