Context: I sometimes hear the argument that god explicitly told Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit, the same way a parent tells its child not to stick things or touch electrical outlets. So god forcing the two of them to have children and dooming every human ever since is perfectly justified.

      I just noticed the middle tines of the fork are snapped off, allowing for easy insertion.

      Nah, there’s a clear warning written besides it. Some might say that leaving a super dangerous object in the middle of my house is careless, but I told the kids not to touch it. That’s good enough. (I’m so good at parenting. It’s almost unbelievable)

        And when your children do end up taking the fork, insert it into the outlet and electrocute themselves … instead of treating them, helping them or sending them to the hospital … you call children’s aide and the police and have them remove the children to be taken into foster care … then blame the children for causing their removal from their home and into care homes and social services
