God decided. That's how immortal souls work (period) As they (used) to say: The Book !! The Blood !!! The Blessed Hope !!!
You're free to disagree, but be honest to yourself and the rest of your congregants and announce a revelation or something and start your own church. Overhauling the one you're in to suit yourself isn't how it works.
Seriously, do NOT mess with original sin. So very very little is left of Bible religion as it is.
My strong desire is that AF instills rational thought in believers and they conclude on the facts theism is wrong. Inducing apostasy, blasphemy and/or heresy in believers is NOT the function, IMO, of AF.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
