Some say that one cannot know what it real without making mistakes and doing what's wrong. I think that maybe that was Satan's point in the story of Eden and the fall. Was Satan right? Is reality only made real by knowing both good and evil?

If Adam & Eve hadn't fallen, then only Satan and his crew would have done evil. Misery loves company!

I get what you're trying to say though that if you have blinders on you can't see the fullness of things. But Adam & Eve were in full communion with God and happy. That happiness quickly ended with their disobedience. Their realness got more real but it wasn't for the best.

Yup, sin has a price, so does knowledge, look at a child when innocent and then again after they know

There are angels that never sinned. I wonder if their life got so much better through the fall of satan.
