(Why do I get the distinct impress that this is going to go back and forth for a while and then you will insult me and put me on ignore. If so please do it now and save both of us some time and effort.)I have given this question some thought and study. You are correct that Genesis 3:22 states that God does say A&E has become as us. I would not be too quick to make assumptions however. A horse is as us as in we are both mammals.Genesis 3:4-5Your child murdering God was.
Answer the question?

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Is it good to have ones mental eyes open?
How is A & E becoming as Gods, God's own words, a wedge between God and man or man becoming less familiar with God?
We have gone full circle so start communicating or get lost.

Yes but you forget that God said --- And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil:
We are not livestock.
Seems your thoughts do not run too deep.
Let me help you.

Yes, I mentioned the "as one of us". I did not address the "to know good and evil" but I do not see what the point of that would be but to muddle the issue.
We are not livestock but neither are we gods and neither were A&E.
Deep thoughts require digging to find. When I am working on something I try to keep everything I need in short term memory.
Please help away. I welcome anything which will either directly or even indirectly unlock one more piece of the puzzle.
"We are not livestock but neither are we gods and neither were A&E."
If you are going to deny what God himself says in the scriptures, what is the point?
You say you have given that story some thought but it seems that you have not remembered that it is a Jewish story and that Christianity reversed their moral of man's elevation in Eden to the Christian view of a fall.
Show how becoming as Gods, God's own word is a fall.
Show how A & E deciding to open their eyes instead of going around with them closed is somehow wrong.
I will not ignore you unless I think you are a lost case.
