Gods purpose for creation of Adam and Eve was for relationship with him. God created the world perfectly. He did not create it to teach us a lesson. God created everything from nothing. NEVER will we be God as before god there was no one. We can all agree that God was not created so again we didn't need to go to earth to be more like him as we will never be God. There is no logic behind this story and there is plenty of Bible Scripture Not The Book of Mormon to dispute the above. Provide me proof anywhere in the Bible that would cause me to believe a man whom is never mentioned throughout scripture. God forcasted our entire existance in the Bible to include Jesus Christ return to earth which clearly hasn't happened yet and No Where is there any mention of your prophet. What I do see is a man who has a nation buying into his storytelling?? Where do I begin? Gods purpose for creation of Adam and Eve was for relationship with him. God created the world perfectly.

I meant Moses 5:11. "And Eve, his wife, heard all these things and was glad, saying: Were it not for our transgression we never should have had seed, and never should have known good and evil, and the joy of our redemption, and the eternal life which God giveth unto all the obedient." Eve recognized the difference between their former state in the garden and the one she and Adam lived in after the fall. She knew at that point that their joys were well worth the sorrows. The power of the atonement gave them great hope in their redemption and the redemption of their children. I’m sorry Miriam, I must have made a mistake when I wrote this.

It actually says:and I the lord called the name of the first one Pison and it compassed the whole land of Havilah, where I the Lord created much gold. Sorry but that is not any kind of relevant interpretation even from a false prophet.

The cryptic story related in the Bible can be interpreted in a number of ways. The Mormon version is different than the accepted Catholic version which has been accepted by most other mainline Christian groups.
