Did you know that there are people who think that forbidden fruit may have been:

But because you mentioned it, someone we talk about here wrote a blog post about the first sin of Adam. You should totally check it out, it isn't that long.

ps. A lot of people do believe that Eve ate first based on the following

Quote

And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was delightful to look at, and a tree to be desired in order to make one wise and insightful, she took some of its fruit and ate it; and she also gave some to her husband with her, and he ate.

or maybe it happened like this

I have never heard it taught that Adam ate the fruit first, it was always Eve.

I have not read the bible is about a million years and was never great about remembering stuff even when I was a practicing catholic, so your comment made me go look it up because I thought it was the other way around, as well.

Trust a person raised gotherdite to know the bible    You are correct:

The woman eats the fruit and gives some to the man

You may very well be right.  I am not a theologian whatsoever, so I'm not claiming this as absolute truth.  It's not the point of the post though.  It's more about the roles of males and females in history since then.

How about - Hey Adam, it would be interesting if you had, say, owned your own shit, owned up to biting the apple Eve offered instead of trying to shift ALL blame on Eve.  

Then there is a different perspective if you think in terms of the following:  Apple = Knowledge.  So what Eve did was open up Knowledge an awareness.  (and the Bible says that it was the "Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil"  (there was also a Tree of Life).  Then the serpent comes along, proves he was paying more attention to God than Adam or Eve and Eve demonstrates that she misheard God thinking that if she ate she would die.    

(I may have used that passage in working with older kids to demonstrate the need to pay attention to what the Bible really says and not just what they think it says or heard someone say it said).
