I don't know you, and I realize you don't know me. However, I have an answer to your question about the apple. First off, God had designed a path for Adam and Eve, and He wanted to see whether they would choose to follow it. Therefore,He chose this tree as the one tree in which to forbid them from taking of it as a way of seeing their choice. Also, the reason God chose this particular tree was because, really, to begin with, God didn't exactly want to know the good and evil that He did and does and that we know today. Therefore, as a result of this sin, some of today's Christians think of the apple as a symbol of sin due to the fact that the apple is believed to have been the fruit the grew on that tree.
