I'm not sure why you find this significant, but I do have a question about your post:
You should find it significant...because mormon theology is wrong in this instance....and from that it's a pretty easy setp to show other portions of mormon theology are incorrect.
How does someone who wasn't even aware they were naked--understand the intimacies of a sexual relation?
I don't understand why Adam and Eve couldn't have the intimacies of a sexual relation prior to the fall. God told them to be fruitful and multiply....did He not?
Being aware of nakedness....what ever form that took...doesn't mean you couldn't have known and understood the intimacies of a sexual relation. In fact prior to the fall one could suggest it was much more intimate.
Where are any children mentioned in the Garden?
No children were mentioned in the bible as being in the garden with Adam and Eve.
Does this mean Adam and Eve didn't have sexual relation? You seem to be hinting at...yes. Adam and Eve had no sexual relation while in the garden.
The lack of children would only indicate Eve didn't become pregnant or they were not in the garden for a long period of time prior to the fall.
I understand that does not prove any particular point--but neither does your approach. But it does allow us to consider some alternative to ignorance.
My point is God would not tell them to procreate...be fruitful and multiply...but in order to do that you must disobey me and eat from the tree I told you not to eat from.
What we do know is Adam and Eve had not been made mortal in the Garden, and that they were man and wife. No children were mentioned, while in the Garden. They didn't have the knowledge of good and evil, but they became like God--to know good and evil--by partaking of the fruit. It was also pronounced it was not good for man to be alone--and the creation of a physical woman occurred, etc.
That has nothing to do with the ability to have children in the garden.
I'm not sure of all the implications there, but for me--it does imply the eternal nature of marriage, and the importance of man and woman--and the importance of knowing good and evil--and that principle is endemic to becoming like God, exercising our own agency, and becoming what we really desire to be--through God's grace.
When I read your response I think...how serpent in nature. How you bought into the exact same thing Eve bought into when she was deceived prior to Adam eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
That is "exercising our own agency, and becoming what we really desire to be"...that is, like god, doing what we want to do regardless of what the Creators will for us is.
It also is a thought that if God knew ahead of time they were going to eat of the fruit(and He did)--then why did He put the tree there? For me--there had to be an overriding objective in that.
Why did God plant the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden?....Many suggest it was some form of a test, some suggest it was a probation period for Adam and Eve. Some say it was to see if given the choice Adam and Eve would choose God over self exercising their our own agency, and becoming what they really desired to be rather than what God wanted them to be.
Think about it--God planting a tree there He knew would be the ruination of mankind?(as the critics sometimes claim). That's like placing a gun before your children, knowing they would shoot themselves with it.
It wasn't necessarly the tree but rather disobeying God. God could have instead said...you can choose to sit anywhere in the Garden, but don't sit on that rock.
The sin was disobedience as demonstrated by eating the fruit.
The correct way of saying it is that God made Adam and Eve knowing they would be disobedient when tempted and deceived.
Adam and Eve exercised their own agency and in doing so disobeyed God.
There has to be a better explanation than one which implicates God--and the LDS teach it. That is--the Garden of Eden--and what transpired there--offered mankind an opportunity to become like God, to know good and evil--and become what we really are, or --desire to be. It was part of His plan--and came out of His love for His children--that He would share with His children--what He possessed. Pure love, IMO.
How is mankind falling into a state of depravity...where God compares us to a filthy menstrual rag...spiritually dead and disconnected from God, condemned to hell for an eternity....Pure Love?
I say--what a beautiful, perfect plan--as is endemic of all of God's plans. I'm thankful for Adam and Eve--and rejoice in their story. That gave me an opportunity to be here--and feel the love of God in my life. Glory be to God!
I find it ironic that a sect of people who are proclaiming the need for following Gods commands and ordinances to qualify to receive eternal life...exaltation...consider the act of disobediance by Adam and Eve was a good thing.
Keep in mind, you never did answer really reply to the post "
In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve were unable to bear children. (not true)"
