Quote:Indeed it is.. However others think our condemnation resides in our own ablity to not sin, that we somehow are condemned by, and held accountable to our own actions.
I don't blame you for wanting to run away from that shit as fast as you can. Pretty much the most sensible thing you have ever said.
Except.... it leaves you out of touch with your fellow dolts.
Quote:original sin, in Christian doctrine, the condition or state of sin into which each human being is born; also, the origin (i.e., the cause, or source) of this state. Traditionally, the origin has been ascribed to the sin of the first man, Adam, who disobeyed God in eating the forbidden fruit (of knowledge of good and evil) and, in consequence, transmitted his sin and guilt by heredity to his descendants.
Quote:The doctrine is the prerequisite for the Christian understanding of the meaning of Jesus’ crucifixion and atonement. Despite its importance for understanding Jesus’ sacrifice, the doctrine of original sin has been minimized since the European Enlightenment.
