Your God determined that all of humanity would be afflicted with a sinful nature due to the disobedience that occurred in the Garden, despite having absolutely no connection to the original sin. That makes your God completely responsible for man's fallible and sinful nature, like it or not.
God does not cause us to sin but He does take responsibility for us. Jesus came and died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sin. In the end He will remove all sin from the earth. If you choose to hold on to your sin then you will be removed along with it. He will allow you to disobey Him but you can either allow Him to pay for you or you can pay the price yourself.
In continuing with the story, it is your God that illegitimately implicates the whole of humanity for a single transgression, and deems everyone to be an unworthy sinner. That was God's judgement, His determination, His will and therefore His fault, by design.
Your God created the very idea of sin, the conditions for the original sin to transpire, as well as the capacity/predisposition to sin in every man, woman, child and infant.
Your God made you sick, so that He could sell you the cure...and you're actually buying it.
None for me, thanks...I know a shakedown when I see it.
