no youre right– i just personally made that connection between the two, but i also think the author wouldnt include such two contradicting religions. i tried researching it a little, but all that came up was pomegranates being a literary device for the gain of knowledge, not any other fruit.
that being said, i dont think the author meant much by it.
Why are they eating that fruit? It just seems so dumb of them to eat the fruit.

Does anyone else think that's so dumb ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍ Are we suppose to believe this? LOL
