Yet the Tree of Life didn't give life in its most basic sense but rather a greater form of it. So then why conclude that the Tree of Knowledge was so literal?
Feeling ashamed of one's nudity is a greater form of knowledge of good and evil? In my opinion, that's pretty basic. Same applies to disobedience. You were a toddler when you learned to understand the consequences of disobeying your parents. Yet, Adam and Eve didn't understand what you did when you were 2-3 years old. I'll bet your parents don't punish your kids for that time you disobeyed them when you were 1 year old and didn't know any better.
