Poor ad copy
There’s an ad for pomegranate based shampoo, or some such personal product, and it contains a line like: some scholars say that it was a pomegranate not an apple that Eve gave to Adam. It’s such a stupid line it just leaps out at me and annoys me every time - and that’s saying something for such a bland ad for an uninteresting product.
What scholars? Surely either you’re a scientific scholar who doesn’t believe in the Garden of Eden, or you’re a religious subscriber to that bible story, in which case why would you believe that the word of the bible is wrong on that one detail? I would imagine the set of all scholars who fall into neither of those two camps is vanishingly small.
