What if adam said no?

also, would we exist without it?

is it wrong to celebrate our existence if Adam and eve are harmed by this, is it wrong to rejoice that the Jewish system was lost for the Gentiles, or whatever St. Paul says, is rejoicing over a good which is horrid to others wrong? and what would happen if Adam had said NO?

God bless

Would be exist? Of course, it is unknown whether you and I would exist, but humanity would exist. The world would be a very different place, certainly, for without sin we would still be in the Garden. Before original sin, the Lord did command Adam to be fruitful and multiply, so we know that procreation would still have taken place.

As for rejoicing at evil - that is another thing. We do have the saying, “oh happy fault” by which we refer to original sin. But this is not a celebration of the sin itself, rather it is a recognition that we are saved by Jesus Christ, a salvation which was necessitated by the sin of Adam. We should never rejoice in sin or the pain and demise of others, but it is morally acceptable to find joy in the results, so long as we recognize that our joy is from the Christ, and not from the sin itself.

Does this make sense?

Thank God for that, I am usually good at such, but this is good to hear, it reaffirms some things, but also leaves as much unanswered, but your post seems right. I have alot of research still, I am glad to hear such (it makes sense). God bless, Marc Aupiais
