Pride was the cause of disobedience.

It couldn't have been. Adam was sinless. Pride is a sin. What you (and others) are saying is that sin entered into man and then he was disobedient. What happened from scripture is that man was disobedient and sin entered the world.

Rom 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

The question is how could man be disobedient with no sin?

On that "humble" note, I will close with "good luck."

No one said I'm perfect. ;O)

Rom 5:19

Transgression or sin is one and the same. You sin in your mind before you act.
