The subtext is, 'All the suffering you have is because you wanted to find out what was going on. You could be in the Garden of Eden if you had just kept your fucking mouth shut and hadn't asked any questions. Frank Zappa
About This Quote

The essence of Christianity is told in the Garden of Eden history. The fruit that was forbidden was on the tree of knowledge. The subtext is, "All the suffering you have is because you wanted to find out what was going on. You could be in the Garden of Eden if you had just kept your fucking mouth shut and hadn't asked any questions." Jesus said that when people ask questions, they are making themselves stupid, but when they don't ask questions, they are making themselves wise. Keep your head down and keep your mouth shut, and you will never suffer.
