yesterday history became hot network question
yesterday comment added Katie Rose Müller It's understandably similar, but that question is based on whether sorrow existed before the fall. My question is not about whether there was or wasn't sorrow but rather whether the sorrow is being correctly applied. What is causing the sorrow: being cast from Eden; conception; childbirth etc. I don't know how else to express my question. I'm not the most articulate person, unfortunately. And none of the answers in the previous cited question are helpful to me.

yesterday comment added Vincent Wong I think the question emphasizes whether Genesis 3:16 should be interpreted as a statement of fact rather than a consequence of Eve's sin.

yesterday comment added Nigel J I agree that this is askng the same question as Anne's link.
yesterday comment added Katie Rose Müller I'm questioning whether the traditional view that sorrow and pain in child bearing are actually connected. And whether the sorrow is merely the departing from Eden and being cut of from God.
yesterday comment added Katie Rose Müller No, not a repeat question. And I don't believe anxiety causes more pain. I think that's a cruel assumption and unnecessarily blaming women.
yesterday comment added Anne Is this not a repeat of this old question? hermeneutics.stackexchange.com/questions/755/… Not an answer, just an aside, re. pain in childbirth - an awful lot of women bring on unnecessary pain by being tensed up. That could be due to fear, or a reaction to initial pain (which is slight, at the start). If women actively relaxed and just went with the flow - knowing they were unable to stop the natural process - then the more they relaxed the quicker, and the less painful giving birth would be. Stated from experience.
