The apple that Adam and Eve ate had worms which prevented sin

I mean, I could understand if the apple had no worms or seeds. This is what would of brought sin upon mankind and would of resulted in all men being already doomed to hell from the beginning. But the apple had both worms and seeds. So there was no reason at all for there to be sin in the first place. There was no need for Jesus to sacrifice himself at all and for people to accept him or be condemned. Therefore, people are going to hell for no justified reason at all. It was actually mainly the worms that prevented sin combined with the secondary factor of the seeds contained within the apple.

Good to know. Do you think beach balls have free will?

First off, there's nothing in the actual text that says it's an apple, just a fruit.

Secondly, there's nothing in the actual text about the consequences of eating the fruit that says anything about being doomed to hell.

The idea of the fruit being an apple came from a misunderstanding of the Vulgate Bible. The word malum is a homonym that can mean "evil" or "apple." So malum was used in Gen 2:17 for evil, someone thought it meant apple.

I'm sorry, but I do not follow the logic here, why would worms and seeds make a difference?

Great question! I can only suggest that perhaps the only path you'll find to a convincing answer to your question might lie directly through one of Colorado's fine marijuana stores. Not that I would recommend taking such a path.
