Rebellion. God gave a simple command "Do not eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil"; but after being tempted, both Adam and Eve ate from that tree. Prior to this, they had not even known that they were naked in the garden. Basically, God had created man with free will and with every good thing pleasing to mankind; but he had not instilled the ability to kill, deceive, or hate. However, the fruit from this tree would open their eyes to these things and cause them to have the ability to do all sorts of evil. You could also look at this sin as being "rejection". Adam & Eve rejected God's plan (to live in Paradise without the knowledge of the ability to rebel); however by submitting to the suggestion of the adversary, Adam & Eve were rejecting God's commands and they were rejecting his plan for mankind. It's the same old story today - mankind thinks that we know what's best for ourselves when, really, we don't. It would actually be much better if we all lived back in the Garden of Eden again - we wouldn't have knowledge of good and evil, anymore; but we also wouldn't be suffering pain, death, destruction, famine, war, rape, murder, etc.
