Drugs are Adam's Sin

Book excerpt: Drugs are Adam’s Sin is a contemporary interpretation of the sin committed by Adam, peace be upon him. The author believes that contrary to what many believe—that Adam’s sin was biting into an apple from a forbidden tree—his crime really was abusing drugs, resulting in the poisoning of his nervous system and unhappiness in paradise. The author contends that the tree in the Garden of Eden was not tall but rather short and charming—it was the poppy tree, which produces opium, morphine, and heroin. The toxins Adam ingested were genetically passed to his children, resulting in dreadful consequences that continue to this day and that have affected all of humanity. In examining Adam’s crime, the author seeks to answer questions such as: • How should we look at the criminal nature of man? • What can we do to correct our daily behaviors? • Why is understanding the true nature of Adam’s sin so important? Get a new perspective on events from the Bible, the nature of sin, and how humanity can solve what ails it in this groundbreaking book.
