I think that Charlie's situation is very similar to that of Adam and Eve's. Before Charlie was just this innocent and positive guy who's always honest about things around him, he listens to other people. Then just because he wants to be smart, he decides to do the operation. Just like Eve, she didn't listen and then she ate the apple of knowledge. Like Charlie just wants to be full of knowledge and he decided to do the operation when Ms. Kinnian said she wasn't sure if it was permanent or not. When Charlie became smart, the people around him doesn't think he's fun to mess with anymore, because he's not the naive guy he used to be. "If not for that none of us would ever have to grow old and sick, and die." If that's compared to Charlie's story, it means that if Charlie never got smart, everyone would still be making fun of him and having fun teasing him, and now they're just bored. Eve blushed when she saw that she was naked, and when Charlie lost his naivety, he blushed as well because he finally saw that the world wasn't all that nice. To my opinion, I think it's kind of wrong because it's not right to make fun of low IQ people, so when they ignored him because he's smart, Charlie shouldn't really take it personally because he's finally figured out they're not his real friends. And without Adam and Eve, we wouldn't have clothes on and we would live forever and that would be really boring. That's what I think (:

Interesting ViVi. Your post makes me think that in some ways the stories are very different. Adam and Eve were punished by their god for making wrong choices. However Charlie was being teased and mistreated for fault of his own. Do you think Charlie deserved to be treated like that? Do you think Adam and Eve deserved to be punished for not following directions?

Mr. Patrick; I don't think Charlie deserved to be treated like that. It's not his fault he's a little naive and not very smart. People should be more passionate. About Adam & Eve, i think that they shouldn't be punished. They were curious, that's all, considering they were the first people on earth. Everyone deserves a second chance (:

I really agree ViVi. I think everyone does deserve a second chance. We are different every day of our lives. I do think that people should be accountable for their actions though. It's tough to have a solid opinion with no exceptions.
