Well, the passage actually describes the loss of innocence of man as man discovers the morality (or outright discovers evil). It is a little distant but my train of thought was towards how much of creationist science depicts any secular science as immoral and the cause of the fall of "societal norms" (which were artificial anyway, the perfect family never existed). I find it hilarious how many fundamentalists have this view that society is getting more and more morally decrepid and have some fantasy of "better" times...and the Creationist Museum actually posits that science has some hand in harming American's families and causing the downfall of moral society.
