Basically we all have the tendency to sin, and we all will if given the chance. It started with the first humans and will continue throughout all of humanity. That's how it was explained to me in school anyway.
The more literal approach of "inheritance" and "being responsible for Adam and Eve eating a forbiden apple" is quite old school these days.
Do you really believe that a new born infant is sinful? Really?
Do you really believe that you are responsible for your parents "sins"? Your grandparents? Your great-grandparents? And so forth?
Do you really believe you can be held responsible for the sins of two people who never existed and who your god maliciously entrapped? Really?
Annd why is your user name claiming a theology which you have just rejected?
