Maybe you will look at it again in this light. The Creation story tells of order appearing from chaos. The disobedience of Adam and Eve mark the appearance of disorder and as you read Genesis one sees this further disintegration until we get to the flood and the "re-creation" of mankind. The God of the Bible is always intervening to save mankind from the consequences of their actions, always acting through singular individuals and ending, so we Christians believe, in His personal entering of History and the establishment of the Church, whose saints acts as his surrogates until the End of History. Maybe this "mythical" view will make sense, if you understand that this "Myth" is just as grounded in fact as the myth of Evolution.

I guess you have a good point in such that Adam and Eve act of disobedience was the first bad thing to be done by the human race. In that case, I guess, God would have a point to stress that particle act before stressing other bad acts, even if the later acts are more horrible. I think?
