If we can’t agree if it was a apple, an pomegranate or grapes, which fruit appears on the first page of the Holy Book (or maybe the second, I dunno, I haven’t read it myself), then how can we agree on anything else?

The salvation question is important to followers of Christ
because we are told to spread the Gospel.

Some make it harder than others.

I always think of the guy on the cross next to Jesus whose only “work” was to believe.

What the fruit was does not seem to matter. The sin is not in the fruit or any part of the tree. The sin is in the choice to disobey and carrying it out. Eve was deceived -- Adam was not. He made a deliberated choice. This is pretty deep how and why. Suggest we just leave it there for now ---
