OK. So, since I am ignorant of some of the things God wants me to do (some might say), he'll let it slide? But I will be punished for knowingly disobeying something He told me?
Cool.
You think it is cool to be punished for willfully disobeying?

I'm cool (OK) with that situation. Of course, the severity of the punishment should be reasonable. Eternal torment in flames is a bit extreme, no matter what the offense. IMO.

An eskimo is perfectly happy on a diet of whale-blubber, which would kill you, or have you in pretty poor health, living in TX. And bottom-feeders; do you really need God to tell you not to eat a scavenger? That is up to you.
Can you distinguish between evil/immoral/illegal and unwise/risky?

I'd say that the fruit will certainly instruct me, if I blow it. I truly believe that sin requires knowledge of right and wrong in that area, and no one goes to hell for a sin if they are ignorant there. Sins are things done willfully, with foreknowledge of their wrong.
I might quickly do something illegal, risky, or unwise; to save a life,
for example. Evil and immoral seem to be a diff cat to me.

I'm also convinced that "Eternal torment in flames" was just the best alliteration possible for a human, and we are told that there are levels of hell, and heaven, aren't we? Of course, we only see black, or white there...

Maybe my "hell" will be having you as a roommate.
