AXEL - Great site man. I like how you don't shy away from any questions. I teach sunday school for 15-18 year olds, so I can appreciate getting different questions.
One thing however,
You have it said that Eve was the first missionary by converting Adam to God's plan. I think the common idea that Eve "knew" more than Adam and chose the right by eating the apple is a flawed one.
God told Adam and Eve not to eat the fruit. Then Satan told them they had to if they wanted to be like God and know good from evil. So Eve makes up her mind to disobey God and follow Satan. That was a mistake.
I belive that had Eve said "thanks for the advice, I would prefer to ask God what He thinks" both Adam and Eve could have asked God "what is it with this apple thing, do we have to eventually eat it?" By ASKING the question, they would have shown God they were READY for the next stage and I belive God would have said, he was right, and you are blessed (instead of cursed) for asking the question, and here you go, eat the apple now.
The problem was not that they ate the apple, that had to happen. The problem was that they listened to Satan. If you look at all commandments, they come by a question proceeding it, showing God that we are ready for the next level. God never just tells us what to do without our asking him a question first. So Eve was not a "missionary" even though her intentions were good, she and Adam should have waited.
I have lots more on this, but I think this way of looking at it solves the biggest catch-22s the world has ever had to wrestle with (ie, don't eat the apple and have kids, but you need to eat the apple if you want to have kids.)

JOEL - Your first statement is correct. Before taking the fruit, Eve couldn't know more than Adam, because both of them didn't really know much of anything, except what God told them, and God told both of them the same things at the same time.
And she could not "choose the right" when confronted by Satan, because she did not yet have the ability to do that. She did disobey God's command but not because she made a choice between right and wrong.
However, after Eve ate the fruit she was able to process right from wrong and know good from evil; something Adam still couldn't do; so at that moment she did know more than Adam, and was able to convince him to also take the fruit. That was when she became the first missionary.
Actually what I said about Eve being the first misionary was supposed to be more a joke than anything else.
I think what happened there is a classic example of the difference between men and women. The man goes with his head and lives the letter of the law, and woman goes with her heart and tries to live the spirit of the law. Eventually together they manage to make the right decision.
Your idea about how they should have asked God first sounds good for us, but it never would have happend that way. All along it was God's intention for Adam to transgress His command and to curse the land(He did not curse Adam), so that Adam and Eve would become mortals and experience life, and so we could do the same.
As Lehi declared, "If Adam had not transgressed he would not have fallen, but he would have remained in the Garden of Eden. And all things which were created must have remained in the same state in which they were after they were created; and they must have remained forever, and had no end" (2 Ne. 2:22)
In reality Adam was not cursed at all but felt very blessed for what God did. After being cast out of the garden he praised God, saying, "Because of my transgression my eyes are opened, and in this life I shall have joy, and again in the flesh I shall see God" (Moses 5:10).
And Eve was glad, saying, "Were it not for our transgression we never should have had seed, and never should have known good and evil, and the joy of our redemption, and the eternal life which God giveth unto all the obedient" (Moses 5:11).
