Adam And Eve - Blog Posts

TOGACHAKO + ADAM AND EVE PARREL OMG!! (I am not delusional)

Uraraka being Adam the first (wo)men created ever, Horikoshi has stated during Jump Festa 2022 that "Toga was a character created specifically for Ochako, and I've developed Ochako to match Toga". like how God took a rib from Adam to create Eve to match him, Toga eats the apple (or the fruit whatever it was) like eve, and they both gained a new perspective, Eve realized everything while Toga realized most heroes don't see villains as humans (AM I COOKED - OR AM I COOKING???)

Toga tries to make Uraraka see the same and sooner than later, Uraraka eats the apple (she's realizes toga's perspective), if you're into DOOMED yuri. Switch the roles, Deku is the first man and uraraka is his girl, The snake (TOGA) convinces Uraraka to eat the apple (she her perspective) and Uraraka convinces Deku to do the same BOOM

there’s got to be at least one trans woman named eve out there whose deadname is adam. and she’s the funniest person to ever grace this earth with her presence.

YESSS! Some else who made this connection! The Last Unicorn is also one of my biggest writing inspirations

The Last Unicorn is a modern retelling of the Fall of Eden/Humanity, and no one will ever convince me otherwise!

99% of my writing inspiration truly comes from "The last Unicorn (1982)".

They really let me hear sentences like:

"Never run from anything immortal; it only attracts their attention."

"I wish you had let the red bull take me, I wish you had left me to the harpy. I can feel this body dying all around me."

"Unicorn, mermaid, sorceress... no name you could give her would surprise or frighten me. I love whom I love."

"I have done you evil and I can not undo it."

And expected me to be chill about it!

Also I wonder if "I can feel this body dying." was something Adam and Eve experienced when their immortality was taken away from them 🤔

so I finally read the Adam and Eve story for myself and I have some SHIT TO SAY.

So I finally read the Adam and Eve story for myself and I have some SHIT TO SAY. I stumbled upon it while researching the Greek creation myth, you can read it for yourself here.

First off, I feel the story of Adam and Eve, aka Genesis 3, is less about the consequences of disobedience and more about challenging authority and the risks that come with it. God told Adam and Eve that they would die if they ate from the Tree of Knowledge, but we know that wasn't necessarily true, showing fear-mongering in order to threaten believers into doing things. The serpent encouraged Eve to eat from the tree anyways, to which she was hesitant.

She was hesitant because the only thing she KNEW was God's word. Eve knew nothing but what God had told her, and she mainly didn't really have a choice in the matter. The serpent was trying to tell her that yes, she DOES have a choice, and she doesn't have to follow God's word all the time. It even said: 'For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.' God was lying to them, and the serpent was only giving her the glory of choice.

So Eve took the serpent's word and ate from the Tree of Knowledge. She even encouraged Adam to eat the fruit as well- on his own coalition and will! Both of them gained knowledge and feeling and the ability to distinguish right from wrong on their own. they grew as people; they no longer needed God to make choices for them, which should be an advancement.

When God saw that they knew more than HE thought they should, he immediately got mad and punished them. and how did God punish Eve, who was the first human in the world to realize her will? He stripped her of her free will, making her a slave to a man and bringing her pain. the serpent, the one who brought upon these lights, was put to death, and Adam, who should've gotten a punishment just as fitting as Eve's, was actually rewarded with the gift of agriculture. It's used to teach me that rebellion is an evil thing but in actuality I've learned how society punishes the ones who know they are corrupt.

I talked with my friend about this, and they also brought up some good points:

"[Eve] was a woman who was sheltered by care and love and when she finally rebelled and decided to think for herself, she was punished for it. Didn't help that she was lied to."

"HE TOLD ADAM 'HEY THAT'S THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL DON'T EAT THE FRUIT' AND HE JUST TOLD EVE 'HEY YOU SEE THAT TREE THERE? YEAH DON'T EAT FROM IT.' DIDN'T TELL HER WHY!!!!" [in all caps because we were getting heated on this topic]

"It's a perfect model of the lack of respect we've had for women since the dawn of creation."

To be honest, I find it quite ironic that the story of Adam and Eve, the third story of the Bible, tells us just how the Roman Catholic Church (and how some churches still) treat the people who saw through their lies and wanted to know more about the world, away from God. And yet they still pass it around as a warning about the pursuit of hidden knowledge when they are the ones hiding this knowledge themselves.

This has been a rant.
