This is not biblically accurate. She should be naked, since she doesn’t yet have knowledge of good and evil, and god considers nudity evil, because he is a prude. But also he didn’t clothe Adam and Eve, cause he’s a perv.

Also bellybutton shouldn't exist on Adam and Eve.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 9 points 2 days ago (2 children)

How do you think god counted them? Poke a finger in the belly.

[–] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

I chuckled. Thanks

or should it...

no, no, a birthing God entity is a gross thought, stop...

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 50 points 3 days ago

My quip with the artistic choice is that they made Eve have very very long hair which could have served as breast cover. But they chose to add the inaccurate leaves...

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

It's actually just for support, they're pretty heavy

And the bible never says the fruit was an apple

[–] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (4 children)

Given the era, I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually a fig

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's the garden of eden so there's no reason to believe that it's a fruit we have. My head canon is that it was a giant, fruit shaped flaming hot Cheeto

[–] BugleFingers@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

So it was a FIG-ticious fruit?

The comic is obviously of a theatre reproduction of the event.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (3 children)

To be fair they also didn’t have genitals since they can’t Fuck, so maybe they literally have nothing to be ashamed of.

Unrelated but they also shouldn’t have belly buttons because they weren’t born.

[–] scrion@lemmy.world 24 points 3 days ago (4 children)

I don't think that interpretation, i. e. the absent genitals, is canon.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

so NOW we're drawing the line?

[–] jlh@lemmy.jlh.name 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

...then how do they have children? where did Cain and Abel come from?

[–] Vincent@feddit.nl 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

...and where did all the people that came after Cain and Abel come from? Who was their mother?

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Cain and Able weren't Adam and Eves only children. Keep in mind that canonically, Adam lived for over 900 years. That's a lot of time you can use to make more babies.

After the whole regicide incident, they also had Seth. Both him and his exiled brother ended up marrying their sisters. Their descendants did the same. So yeah, it's all incest, top to bottom.

The biblical flood was actually created to wipe out the descendants of Cain, since Noah and his cousins wife were both descendants of Seth

[–] Vincent@feddit.nl 1 points 1 day ago

Damn TIL! So much for my religious education.

No genitals? Where did Eve’s children came from? She shat them?

This implies that the garden of Eden was in the US as they're the only ones that know what pumpkin spice even is.

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 44 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Her wearing a bra even before having a bite suggests that too.

[–] Infomatics90@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago

was going to say, she was supposed to be naked.

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Maybe 10 years ago but nowadays it's internationally much more ubiquitous

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't think many places share this seasonal pumpkin obsession.

[–] siipale@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago

Sure they do. Marketing people will try to sell us anything they can imagine. Maybe we'll have a Thanksgiving in Finland at some point. We already have Black Friday. Great excuse to sell more stuff.

Bottomless but not topless? Eden was a wild place!

[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 35 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Just like Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood

The "apple" was a persimmon?

[–] dragontamer@lemmy.world 35 points 3 days ago (6 children)

Actually, the Bible just says it's the fruit of a tree.

It could have been an orange, pomegranate, or banana.

Weed, they got baked and leaned the knowledge of good and evil.
