I think Christianity blames them both as well, but like Islam it appears Adam is given more of a pass than Eve. Eve is tricked by the serpent which apparently less forgiveable than Adam being tricked by Eve. Adam is sentenced to working for a living and Eve to pain in childbirth. (I bet if a woman had written this, she would have given more of a pass to Eve being tricked by a being she didn't know versus Adam supposedly being tricked by Eve who he did know.)
My guess is the wine thing in the Koran is there to make alcohol a bad thing that should be avoided.

That's the whole idea of religion isn't it? To legitimize whatever the people in charge say? I just love throwing facts at the hardcore Christians that think they have it all correct and wrapped up- especially a lot of that hardcore right that have no clue what an Abrahamic religion is but are 100% certain Muslims are the enemy. Bubba- they your Bubba.

Ancient nomadic herder wisdom: If you don't carefully tend to your breeding stock, you cannot maximize the growth of your herd. Every ewe is precious (and every sperm is sacred!).
