Original sin is connected to human conscious evolution and not just biological evolution based on bones and DNA; a software instead of hardware change.
The tree of knowledge of good and evil, is a metaphor for a conscious way of thinking; moral value judgment, that comes from the mind and the brain. Genesis is speaking of human conscious evolution. The formation of civilization required a new type of mind with more neural sophistication than was needed for the old hunting and migratory gathering ways. The tree of knowledge of good and evil was reduced to 10 commandments; seedling. This trees has grown into millions of laws, world wide; giant redwood.
A good analogy for this evolution of human consciousness is a domestic dog; poodle, versus a wild dog, like the wolf. Both have canine DNA. Biology may lump them that way. However, a domestic dog has a different operating system in their brains compared to a wild dog. Wild dogs are millions of years old while domestic dogs are about 30,000 year old. These two types of dogs can mate, but their brains are wired very differently. If they do mate their offspring will become feral which has an operating system closer to the wild dog.
The same was true of Adam and Eve. They were a new type of human with the same DNA, as the caveman. We ma not be able to tell by bones. But Adam and Eve had a more advanced brain and consciousness. They were the first true modern humans; new type of domesticated human. When Cain was sent away he could still breed with the pre-humans since both shared human DNA, but their offspring would be more instinctive until they were domesticated by Cain; teach them things.
Religion is the observational science behind conscious evolution. For example, in Greek mythology, the Titans came first and then the Olympians. The Titans were larger than life; mutants, strong but were also like monsters; metaphor for early modern human behavior after the polarization; children of Cain. This was superseded by a more civilized disposition; Olympians. The Olympians were still polarized into good and evil characters and tendencies. Original sin still clouded the mind making hard to see. This has now degenerated to all aspects of modern culture.
Religion helped cause this evolution of human consciousness. Say, for the sake of argument, we assume religion is all imaginary. Say as we go through life, we add this imagination stream, to our natural instinctive approach to reality. The brain will drift away from our pure instinct and will start to add some of the imaginary to our way of life. This is where civilization begins. Every innovation in science is not DNA based, since it is new or of the then future. These idea come from the imagination, synthesized at an unconscious level. These visions interact with the reality of science, until an innovative change appears. Religion was a way to organize and harness this inner power for change; main frame processing.
This topic is about original sin and that human tendency to judge some things as good and other things as evil. Atheism is a case study, via a class of humans, who can only see in black and white, with their own belief assigned white and anything that is opposite, black. This conscious tendency, that atheism cannot control is called original sin. By their own judgement, religion is a sin toward atheism and needs to be purged, as though this will heal them of their internal neural polarization. If you got rid of religion a new energy will appear to fill in the polarization. Religion by teaching original sin causes one to be self aware and try to control this neural subroutine and remain faithful and objective. Atheism cannot use this trick since anything religion is evil and needs to repressed.
The bible claims this modern tendency in the human mind was not always the case. Before that there was paradise where people were not split minded by the polarization of good and evil. That earlier time was a time of natural human instinct which was more spatial or 3-D. It could bridge the gap between each other and with nature so these were not opposed to each other, within the human mind.
From the POV of neural science, Genesis is connected to the evolution of the human ego, or the secondary center of consciousness; conscious mind. It evolved from the inner self, which was and still is the original center of the unconscious mind; connected to DNA and natural instinct. These two centers can unite or they oppose each other, with original sin connected to a path of opposition to God and nature. The Satan subroutine may now be genetically engrained, due to its self serving natural selection, based on thousands of years of this tendency. Division in modern society is from the original sin neural subroutine.
Atheism and science cannot admit the possibility of Genesis being about human conscious evolution instead of bones and DNA; shell evolution. This possibility does not feed into their inner need to polarize religion via the symbolic neural subroutine. But this is how you start to deprogram it. Religion teaches us, not always by human language, but also by the raw symbolic language of the inner self, which knows the way back to paradise.
Hmmm,
That’s an, what might be called, “interesting” opinion you pulled right out of your ***.
