Did sin enter the world through Adam, Satan or Yahweh?
Most, as well as scriptures, say that it was through Adam, even though Christians sing that Adam’s sin was a happy fault and necessary to Yahweh’s plan.
Given the necessity, Adam, from that, may not be the culpable one and his punishment would be unjust.
Satan had already sinned in heaven before being cast into Eden.
It can be truthfully said that she was the first sinner on earth if we ignore Yahweh.
Further, would you say that Eve sinned, given that Satan or the talking serpent deceived her?
That deception would take lies, and that is a sin, and that sin also preceded Adam’s sin.
Many do not see what the serpent says as a lie, which complicates things.
Was the initial sin, regardless of who did it, a happy fault and necessary to god’s plan like Christians sing in their Exultet hymn?
Did Yahweh lie when he told Adam that he would die if he educated himself with the knowledge in the Tree of Knowledge?
How Adam will "educate himself" knowing what is good and what is bad? Because the tree was of knowledge of good and bad, it was not knowledge of mathematics or astronomy.
Why and how does knowledge kill us?
You better talk in singular and about yourself, because knowledge kills no one. And if knowledge "kills" you, then might be because your deep ignorance.
If it does, should we keep our children as blind to it as Adam and Eve initially were?
Who told you that Adam and Eve had no other knowledge? Your 4 years old son can use the cell for making calls and can walk naked in the street at the same time. He might not see any inconvenience walking outside that way, but he surely knows to use the TV remote control.
The Eden myth can get quite complicated, especially when Christians call it a fall, then say it was necessary so as not to derail Yahweh’s plan.
In this part you seem to be correct.
This last being what the Jews wrote into their myth and which they say is not the Original Sin of the Christian interpretation, but more like the Original virtue that the Jews call it.
That is a silly interpretation of theirs.
The opposite of what Christianity says, if you ignore their happy fault view.
In terms of first sin, I see Yahweh, since sin was necessary to him as the first sinner, followed by Satan, Yahweh’s loyal opposition and teacher of humankind, and then Adam.
In the bible
sin is defined as disobedience to God, then, how it can be that God have sinned? Your thoughts are showing lack of reading comprehension, you better re-read the bible, with understanding at this time... please.
Or perhaps is such innate ignorance of yours because you prohibited yourself eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge... lol
Why Eve at the end of Genesis 3 has to then be second class to Adam, --- he shall rule over you, --- would seem like Yahweh punishing the wrong party.
Thoughts?

Well, that is your opinion.
Not you neither I were there, so we just discuss about a case that has been closed years ago.
If you have any doubts of the judgement made on Eve, then you can ask for opening the case and provide new evidence or witness.
