Pretty much everything revolving around the Rinnegan, Sharingan and Senju is based on myths/religion. And no, I really don't think that Kaguya eating the fruit is based on Biblical Eve. Not sure why people think that. Eve eating the fruit and having Adam bite some too was the original sin and it was tree of knowledge.

Kaguya obviously wasn't stated to be the first human female (nor human for that matter), there was no equivalent of Adam with her and the Shinju's fruit was of power, not knowledge.
