I did think about Adam and Eve but , it does not correlate to the extreme , I just brushed it off , because there hasn't really been any type of Christian references in the entire manga more like Buddhism and Shintoism. But i do see the similarities.

I like this idea of the Shinju that Kishi came up with. It is something not anyone expected.

I guess you think have not noticed.
Kishi tries to do his own spin on christianity/bible references by doing the opposite as to what happened in the bible. This is a form of rejecting christianity as a religion by mocking it.

- kayuga(or whatever her name is) ate the fruit to stop war and vanity.
As opposed to Eve who was convinced to eat the fruit for "power".
- The God tree is pretty much God. And he is punishing everyone.
The bible however tells us that God is forgiving.
- After the fruit was eaten, God kicked Adam and Eve out of the Garden/Kingdom of Eden.
The Sage of Six Paths and his mother made a kingdom thanks to their new power.
- Eve had two sons and one killed the other over jealousy.
The Sage of Six Paths had two sons who was given everything, and never fought/killed one another.

Why are everybody talking about Bible?

These stories are in the Quran too.

Because there are still differences in the stories. Besides, the Bible is older and more widely acknowledged.

Actually, these stories are older than either. They share a common origin in ANE mythology. Also, the Shinju is a reference to the World Tree and the Tree of Life, concepts found in many religions across the globe.

Foreshadowing? Wait...

So you're saying that Naruto is Jesus, who dies for everyone's sins, in other words, taking on their hatred and shizz?
Are you foreshadowing that Naruto will die?

Yes, Naruto will be renamed Jesus V2 and the Konoha 11 will be renamed The 11 Disciples and Naruto will die on a cross.

No.

I'm saying that the God Tree was foreshadowed through the situation of Hagoromo, and his sons, being like Cain and Abel.

But seriously this is the story of the forbidden fruit,Adam,eve,Cain,abel and its so clear that naruto is playing the part of jesus.naruto almost got killed at his birth just like jesus,he was born outside the village just like jesus,he was hated by almost everyone just like jesus and i'll tell you what,he'll be betrayed by by his best friend just like how Jesus was betrayed by his best friend judas(note it has been proven that jesus was closer to judas than any other of his apostles in numerous books even peter wasn't as close to jesus like judas was)
