“Some Muslims believe it was a banana”
Aaaaaaahahahahaha!
That would explain so much, wouldn’t it?
The serpent (already a phallic symbol) tricks Eve into sampling the forbidden banana (another blatantly phallic symbol), and Eve discovers the Knowledge that something Good to eat can also be put to another use, that might be thought of as Evil, but felt pretty Good to her.
It also fits with Ray Comfort’s thesis that the banana is conclusive proof of intelligent design.
Looked into it. You are correct.
Exodus 28:33-34 states that images of pomegranates be woven into the hem of the me’il (“robe of ephod”), a robe worn by the Hebrew High Priest. Pomegranates can also be found in the Bible in 1 Kings 7:13-22, where the fruit is depicted on the capitals of the two pillars which stood in front of the temple King Solomon built in Jerusalem. King Solomon is said to have designed his crown based on the “crown” of the pomegranate. The significance of the Jewish pomegranate is further exemplified by its appearance on ancient coins of Judea, one of only a few images that appear as a holy symbol.
Jewish tradition teaches that the pomegranate is a symbol of righteousness because it is said to have 613 seeds, which corresponds with the 613 mitzvot, or commandments, of the Torah. For this reason and others, it is customary to eat pomegranates on Rosh Hashanah. Moreover, the pomegranate represents fruitfulness, knowledge, learning, and wisdom.
Interestingly, many Jewish scholars believe that the pomegranate was the “forbidden fruit” of the Garden of Eden. Furthermore, the pomegranate is listed in the Bible as one of the seven species (shivat haminim) of fruits and grains that are special products of the Land of Israel.

“The population trend for places Nigeria is frightening and if some natural disaster of epic famine ensues Western countries could very well find themselves in the position of taking literally hundreds and hundreds of millions of third world migrants all at once”
I am not sure why you say this when you know that no such thing will ever happen. No country or group of countries is going to impoverish themself by taking hundreds of millions of African migrants regardless of famine or anything else. Period

We don’t know which fruit it was. Coulda even been the ancient Varqberry.[/quote]
Then how do we know which one to avoid?[/quote]
Its too late to matter.lol
Of course I’m correct. Sheesh! And regarding the banana, there was some really high ranking Sheik recently who issued some sort of official Islamic decree against bananas and cucumbers. Women are not allowed to look at them. It’s sinful. And Islamic storekeepers should keep them covered so women’s eyes don’t wander to the vegetable aisle.

The lot more serious stuff is a direct and indirect result of too many people.
Read the book I recommended to SexMachine, and then let’s talk.

There’s nothing stopping us at the moment. And no politician can raise the issue of slowing down immigration or they’ll be hounded out of office by the left.

Only one conclusion can be drawn from this.
A lot of Arab and Malay men are reeeaaally insecure about the size of their wangers.

Maybe. But the numbers we’ve already taken have radically transformed society. The US may have as many as 30 million illegals by some account and then there’s the legal migrants on top of that plus second and third generation descendants of migrants who have not assimilated. The result is plain to see.

The term is an honorific title that is often used to describe a tribal or village leader or elder or a religious or political authority.

And the problem is? They aren’t like me,sort of idea? Just checking,because many ethnocentrists have this as the real issue,but find any other number of things to make their argument. And I am not saying that is wrong either
