Thats really a loaded question. You need to explain how someone "lives their life morally". Since most on here would say morally is subjective, how could anyone live a moral life, if its a moving target?
No one who professes to be Christian should espouse anyone as being able to lead a "perfect moral life". All are "diseased with sin" as you put it.
Okay, at least you come out and say it clearly, so thanks. I also never used the phrase "perfect moral life," I simply mean they life their life to the best of their ability without hurting anyone (intentionally), they protect their loved ones, give to charity, etc.
Just think of what you would consider as a "good person." And simply take away the belief in God/jesus. Does it matter how good that person is, or are they still tainted?
