Adam and Eve

After reading Genisis two and three, I believe that Adam and Eve were kicked out of the garden because of the serpent.  Even though many people will say that it is all Adam and Eve's fault because they had the final decision.  I don't think that because I think that the serpent is the one to blame because even though the Lord God told Adam and Eve not to eat from the apple, the serpent told them that it won't kill you if eat from it and eating from it will make you God-like.  It says in the text, "you will surely not die."  The serpent also tells Eve that she will benefit from eating from the tree. It shows this when the serpent states, "For God knows that when you eat of it your  eyes  will  be  opened,  and  you  will be like God, knowing good and evil."  This proves that the serpent led Eve to believe that the Lord God was lying to her and just wanted them to be normal, ordinary people.  I also think that it was the serpents fault that Adam and Eve were kicked out of the garden because I think that they would have never eaten from that tree if the serpent would have told them to eat from it. If it wasn't for the serpent Adam and Eve would have never been kicked out.
