Anyways, these crazy people that fast, could be practicing something to show that they are closer to God by respecting his wishes and not eating food or "the apple".
1. they were told they could eat from any other tree, there is a specification that eating isn't wrong although i know you're just trying to be a smartass

2. if you make a sacrifice for someone, it's making a devotion. those crazy people who fast, are fasting to show a devotion. not to other people, but to God whom they believe whole-heartedly exists. it's also a way of sort of controlling glutonny, cuz almost everyone in modern society is a gluton.
MyAntiDrugIsAmy Reviewed by MyAntiDrugIsAmy on . How To Prove The Existence Of God I thought this was pretty funny. It turns out the Bible contains an example of a very simple experiment any Christian could perform to prove the existence of their deity. Biblegod doesn't really hide his existence like so many of his followers claim; in his own book it shows how he sent a very clear message confirming his existence to unbelievers, in an objective experiment whose results could easily be reproduced if indeed there is such a being. Any Christians willing to try it out for me? Rating: 5
