I agree that if they had not sinned, Adam and Eve would still be in Paradise, and so would all their offspring.
However, considering that it was the Serpent – not God – who told Eve that she would become like God if she ate from that tree, why should Adam and Eve be in heaven? Is God obligated to keep up the Serpent’s, (read, “Father of the Lie” here), end of the deal?
How can you say that Adam and Eve repented, when like a couple of bratty little kids, each one blamed someone else for what they’d done, and Adam blamed God for the woman He gave him?
