[QUOTE="Muldah, post: 2439057, member: 699050"] [b]Does man's designation of "homo sapiens" derive from Adam's sin in the garden (see[/b] details)? "Homo sapiens" means "wise man" or "knowing man". So does the term result from Adam's taking to himself the forbidden knowledge of good and evil? Scripture states that "their eyes were opened" afterwards. Does this refer to newfound knowledge? Gen 3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make [one] wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. Gen 3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they [were] naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. [/QUOTE]
