Is It A Sin To Recognize Good And Evil?

Genesis 2:17  But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. (KJV)

vs

Hebrews 5:14  But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. (KJV)

-----------------

Since Adam and Eve ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, we need to now recognize which is which.  To call this a contradiction would be like saying 'don't go into a snake pit' and saying 'now that you've fallen into a snake pit, you'd better figure out which snakes are poisonous and which are not' is a contradiction.  There is no contradiction.
