Best Answer
A:No. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was a mythical tree, as was the Tree of Life, the second forbidden tree. In fact, Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that the Garden of Eden is a purely mythic place. The story originally had a moral purpose and was not intended to describe a blissful existence we once enjoyed but lost. Man's longing for immortality is a hidden theme.

Another Answer:

No. The inspired Word of God says there were 2 special trees in the Garden. It describes the fruit of the tree of knowledge was good for food and pleasing to the eye...(Genesis 3:6). The type of eatable fruit was not named though popular human thought has said this to be either an apple or pomergranate.

As the Scripture does not elaborate more fully upon this fruit and the only eye witnesses to this event were the God Family and perhaps the spirit world, no human source can be emphatic on its non-existence.

The tree of life is the same as the tree of knowledge. God forbade Adam and Eve to eat from the tree of knowledge, and Eve broke that rule. That is why we have sin. So yes, it is bad to eat from the tree.

Can you lose your nose from sniffing cannabis?

No, you cannot. If you are refering to smelling cannabis, you cannot. Generally, any wear or tear your nose receives from physical contact with objects does damage it. However, the smell of cannabis does not damage one's nose. No smells damage the nose alone. There have been no reported cases, to my knowledge, of cannabis users insufflating the plant--for it does not have any psychotropic effects unless it is heated.
