Ok, I'll keep it simple for you Christians: If Adam and Even were made perfect and then sin entered the world when Adam and Eve ate of the tree of knowledge and as a consequence Adam and Eve were now imperfect, how is it fair for all of their descendent's to be born imperfect and sinful? Isn't it a bit unfair for the descendants to be punished for the sins of the father? Shouldn't everyone be born perfect?
Apparently, if Adam and Eve did not eat of the tree, then we'd all be running naked in some tropical paradise having a good time with no knowledge of sin.
If you're a Christian, and you do not share this traditional understanding of the story of eden, please provide scriptural evidence to support your different understanding.
