Okay, I was just thinking about this whole "tree of knowledge" shit. Since it got swept away in the flood, how come that dove brought back a fig leaf? Why the hell would a crappy fig tree survive, and the Tree of Knowledge get swept away?
what ever happened to that "tree of life"

Carmel
The Anisa Tree appears in several religions and many scholars feel it is a metaphore. Later it becomes the "City of God" the "New Jerusalem". Basically the new revelation of divine laws sent down for mankind to order his ever evolving social development.

LOVE those metaphors, especially the ones that make no sense or are impossible.
Ya see now it can be twisted into ones own intentions.
Ya can make the most preposterous explanation and people will stake their lives on it.
