To: Why So Serious
I have come to believe exactly that. It was sex, not an apple. Not literal. Question is, why is it worded the way it is? “You may eat of any tree in the garden but not the one in the midst of the graden you must not eat or your eyes will be opened” or something very close to that. All the “trees” in the garden they could have sex with except one?! Some say that trees stood for nations/races. What do you think?

It was not sex. Sex between a husband and wife is completely holy and beautiful. The idea that it was sex is based upon the false assumption that sex in itself is evil. Sex is not evil but the abuse of sex, taking it outside of God's perimeters for it, which is within marriage between one man and one woman alone, is what is evil. It is because society is so corrupted when it comes to sexual behavior that people have come to view sex as something evil.
Hbr 13:4 Marriage [is] honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
