Maybe Adam never would have touched or eaten of the forbidden tree if God had left him to live alone.       There seems  to be a tendency to blame the woman.  But Eve never heard what God said.  She hadn't been formed yet.  Perhaps Adam told her, we don't know.  I certainly don't excuse her, but God didn't tell Eve not to eat of the tree. He told Adam.  When Eve presented the fruit of the forbidden tree to Adam, Adam knew what he was doing.  He ate it.  He did the one thing he was told not to do.

Gen. 2:18, 21-22  "And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone;  I will make him an help meet for him."  (21-22) And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam and he slept: and he (God)  took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;  And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man."

I think that Adam must have come out of his slumber, looked up, and said, "Wow."

We need men that follow God.  It's not hard to follow a man who follows God.  I can't help but wonder what the outcome would have been if Adam had said "No".
