Answer the following question based on the article "The Mystery of Original Sin: We Don't Know Why God Permitted the Fall, but We Know All Too Well the Evil and Sin That Still Plague Us," by Shuster. Shuster states that one of the themes of the Genesis account of the fall is that God wants us "to believe, trust, and obey him even when there is not a reason to do so that we can wrap our minds around." What does Shuster propose is God’s reason for this?
