I always saw Eve as the First Rebel. Gutsy..... Plus she was all for knowledge & stuff. Information *wants* to be Free - right? [grin]
But my fave is Odin. Removing one of his own eyes in order to see better. Gotta love that kind of commitment to the Truth... and I'm a fan of crows so....
I like that, thinking of her as a rebel...but rebelling against God is kind of a no-no, so I also struggle with that. But I can't totally fault someone for wanting knowledge.
@ Sarah: One of the interesting things about a lot of these covers is how they portray women as dangerous and (naturally!) in need of control. It begs the question: WHY are men SO damned afraid of women?
