You just had to amend you sentence to say: The duck billed platypus is the only venomous mammal to have a regular starring role on an animated television show. That would have solved it! ;) :roll: :lol:

There is no mention of Adam and Eve eating an apple in the Bible. It just says they ate a piece of fruit.

True. Renaissance painters added elements of Greek mythology into their biblical paintings. This could be the reason for portraying the fruit as an apple, from the story of the golden apples in the Garden of Hesperides.
