ndys-1 Review of Sex: The Secret Gate to Eden

Sex: The Secret Gate to Eden (2006 Video)

SPOILER! Nice tale but...

[5/10 · 25 January 2010]

Look, I am open to "new ways" of thinking and I always welcome knowledge to enlighten and teach me. But here, to make all of the pieces "fit", too many assumptions are made. These assumptions are presented as fact. If these "assumptive facts" were not made, the line of reasoning to make this movie "work" would fall flat on it's face. Yes, the Bible (in this case, the Old Testament in particular) has much symbolism. But to say (assume)that the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil is actually an orgasm is more than a bit too assumptive. This movie says that sex was allowed as long as there was no orgasm. The orgasm was the fruit of the forbidden tree. Since Eve "ate" the forbidden fruit first and then Adam "ate", the only way this could be done is if they masturbated until orgasm. That would be the implication. The whole movie is set up around this and I just don't buy it. All who watch this movie will either believe it, walk away with "yeah, but what if"?, or think (like I do) that it just doesn't work because of too many assumptive concepts that are stated as fact.
