Why didn't God finish Adam & Eve then and there?
His Highness the TibetanMonkey, the mundane prophet of the last days before the end of times
his INFINITE CRUELTY. Adam & Eve came out wrong, replace them with
Adam & Eve II...
What God did instead was to prolong their suffering and that of future
generations, which makes him UNIQUELY GROTESQUE IN HIS SENSE OF
JUSTICE.
But then again, WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE HIM? ;)

(Cool. I'm looking forward to wear my brand new t-shirt, the first
one. The monkey will have some fun shocking the world of "good taste,"
often dictated from places like Paris, London or New York. The new
fashion trends are coming from the jungle)

So be it, but I wouldn't be seeing all the crap and hear all the BS

Christians like to say that the earthlingist of the "3 personalities of
their God" spoke in parables.
Fundamentalist Christians like to say that God is constant,
unchanging...
Would not that mean that God according to fundamentalist Christians has
a liking to speak in parables at all times, as opposed to only doing so
during a brief period while walking on Earth surface (including water) in
a man's body?
Does not this indicate that stories in the Old Testament, even as old
as the 1st 5 "books", have fair chance of being parables rather than true
stories?
Especially the matter of the story of Noah and his ark?
What I see here: According to the Bible, God said that God's experiment
of exterminating the world's sinners outside least-sinning family failed
to exterminate sinning from humankind.
Meanwhile, there is the argument that a "just God" would not do such a
thing unsuccessfully, would prefer to have such a "God's thought
experiment" being a parable of doing such unsuccessfully.
I somewhat remember that this was not many books apart in the Bible from
the "Sodom & Gemorrah Story" - I like to think same "book of the Bible".
As I saw the Sodom & Gemorrah story at5e age 7 or so:
=============
Some guy with name of Lot with his family including daughters traveled
to the evil city of Sodom.
Lot and his family had to deal with sinful types that would prefer to
"know" Lot's son(s) than daughters, arguably in a sexual sense, and in
whatever actual sense the sinners of Sodom were not impressed with Lot to
offer his daughters over his son(s) to be "known".
This does lead to "7 deadly sins", arguably traceable to a Bible passage
in "Ezekial" book naming inhospitality and not homosexuality.
There is still the matter of how much or how little God wanted to
punish less-sinning ones in Sodom and in the similarly-sinful city of
Gemorrah:
:::::
God to Lot: Be out of town by sunrise tomorrow. The town you went to
is an especially sinful one than I will blast from the face of this planet
by sunrise tomorrow.
Lot to God: (As best as I remember) What if 50 good folks are here in
town?"
God to Lot: I would not blow up the town if 50 good folks are
there, but that ain't the case!
Lot to God and response, as best as I remember:
That story takes a few turns back-and-forth until Lot asks if God
would blow-up Sodom if only 15 good folks wre there.
As I remember, God said in response to that latter that God would not
destroy the town in question if 15 or even 5 "good folks" were in that
town.
And to Lot and his family: There are not even 5 good folks living
in the sinful city! If there were, I would not destroy it! Since
that is not the case, by sunrise tomorrow, please be somewhere else, and
DON'T LOOK BACK!
(And at or close to the next sunrise, the described supposed city of
Sodom and the supposedly similarly-sinful supposed city of Gemorrah are
said to run into pyrotehcnic and/or volcanic penalty from God.)
Sounds to me that both this and the "Noah's Ark story" are parables.
For this matter, according to most Christians, God does not do what is
injust or destructive-more-than-anything-else. That includes not doing
what is doomed to be injust or unsuccessful, including actions that are
said to be unsucdcessful by God (arguably parables as opposed to actual
history, even if attributed to before Christ's birth - I seem to think
that a supposedly alltime God did not wait until a mere 2,000 years ago
to invent parables!
