Thanks for your post.
Why do you think the tree was called: the tree of the knowledge of good and evil?
Would that name make sense if A&E "knew perfectly right from wrong"? (when they were created)
The tree of knowledge of good and evil was a body whose offering/fruit is endowing people with the means to judge duality.
Tree is used through the bible as a metaphor for bodies; The Most High God told Adam and Eve they could indulge anyone (tree) except for the one that offers the knowledge between good and evil.
They already knew the difference; the tree (when "eaten") made Adam and Eve judges while they were spiritual newborns quite literally.
You see, therefore, why it was such an egregious error: on one hand, the tree of knowledge endowed them with the ability to judge, but on the other hand, since eating the fruit was a direct disobedience to the Word of the Most High God, they were incapable of being Perfect Judges. In fact, they were completely ineligible to judge, as they became slaves to the duality itself.
