Forbidden Fruits
Well, suppose there were no forbidden fruits then there will be no such thing as falling into some temptation, as fruits are free for anyone to enjoy. Or, if we should have forbidden fruits, keep them out of reach, then no one could steal or eat them. No one would be tried.
Suppose any one was free to marry without having to take refuge to awe inspiring marital certificates, vows and promises then there’s no falling into some temptation of another love affair. Rather than claim an inhuman “you’re mine”, better speak a wonderful, warm and free, “I’m yours”.
Can we force, forbid people not to love, desire, what they do desire or love?
Each being, any creature should be matched as nature ordained. We neither can force a cock to be honorable and faithful to one chicken only, nor force a pigeon pair to be unfaithful and be separated from each other.
No forbidden fruits for all creatures, except for human beings, so creatures don’t, can’t sin. This is what Pak Arif thinks.
