Bible stories
Genesis the creation story:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+3
The account of ‘the Fall’ (Genesis 3) offers an explanation as to why we do not always experience the world as an idyllic garden, why evil exists, why relationships are often characterised by disharmony and how it is that we are alienated and distanced from the God who made us ‘in his image and likeness’. The book of Genesis suggests that the human turning away from God results in the disruption of creation and is the origin of human sin and suffering and death.
