Enable Evil, Enter Shame

Breaking God's Law has consequences. Its immediate effect on Adam and Eve was a breakdown of their unity. Before breaking the Law, Adam saw Eve as "bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh." Immediately after breaking the Law, they saw each other as being naked. Their perfect unity was broken, and they began to see their sexual differences in isolation. Before breaking the Law, their sexual differences were understood for their ultimate meaning and purpose, in perfect harmony with the Universe and they felt no shame. After breaking the law, they enabled evil, which allowed them to conceive evil of each other's bodies and felt shame. Shame is a symptom of the knowledge of evil.
