Basically saying that science ain't all that great specially when its first used for destruction other than anything, which is how things are.
Genesis 2 NIV
Here god even tells you, when you eat from the tree of science, you goofed man you're fucked. Like saying, "now that you hold all this knowledge of what is and what isn't, its on you whatever comes of it, which ain't good for you bra"

Damn bros gotta roll out the trusty bible studies. This months prize is in the bag, en route to my box

In Kabbalah there is a latter that describes this in a very wonderful way. It is seen that when we are born we are with God, in his arms, completely in the good graces of paradise. As we grow we go down what is called the "latter of Life" the first rung is food and shelter, the next rung is money, the next rung is power and the last rung is Knowledge. At this point we realize that our knowledge is so far away from our God. We are at the bottom of the latter being separated from God by all of these rungs down the latter. How to get back in the good graces of our Lord is by going up that latter again. First give away the knowledge, next give away the power, next give away the money, next give away the food and shelter and now you are back with the Lord. Many see this as Jewish mysticism but I see it as a truth that relates so much to my life.
