He gave us the choice, we chose and continue to choose paths away from God. Original sin isn't a bad gene or something that get's passed down. It's a part of our instinctual nature that prefers to experience rather than trust. It wasn't something Adam and Eve did whenever ago, people still do it today. If by destroying original sin concepts you're talking about that we are somehow culpable for something we didn't do, then you're right. Many verses destroy that, that's my point. Your first video's premise is that we are being punished for something someone else did, which entirely misses the mark and I tried to point it out. We are personally accountable for our actions and recognizing our own sinfulness is a fundamental part of coming to Christ, not the sins that Adam did in a Garden.

Christians are always trying to absolve God of moral culpability in the fall by whipping out their favorite "free will!", or “ it’s all man’s fault”.

That is "God gave us free will and it was our free willed choices that caused our fall. Hence God is not blameworthy."

But this simply avoids God's culpability as the author of Human Nature. Free will is only the ability to choose. It is not an explanation why anyone would want to choose "A" or "B" (bad or good action). An explanation for why Eve would even have the nature of "being vulnerable to being easily swayed by a serpent" and "desiring to eat a forbidden fruit" must lie in the nature God gave Eve in the first place. Hence God is culpable for deliberately making humans with a nature-inclined-to-fall, and "free will" means nothing as a response to this problem.

If God created our natures then he is culpable for what we do.
