Gotta love the Harry Potter references.
I guess Eve was a Slytherin at Hogwarts.
The first time it was explained to me as a kid in that pinkish/peachy Paradise Lost book, I wondered why it had to happen with the first ones, instead of later people messing up.

It feels like everyone has overlooked the psycologiacal side of the story. God said "don't eat the fruit", but the human brain is incapable of processing the word "don't". What the brain registers is "do". That's why you always drop the glass when someone tells you not to... Guess God forgot that part...
She had never heard a lie before. There was certainly no foundation for her to question the knowledge of a talking snake.
For all she could have possibly know, the snake was revealing "new light"!
So the most valuable lesson from the Garden of Eden is to question any voice that comes along and contradicts former "truthz".
