I'm amused when it comes to "original sin" that a loving god would punish everyone for the sins of their many-generations-removed ancestors.

It would be like my great-great-great grandfather committing a murder and all of his descendants being imprisoned because of it.



We all share in the sin of Adam when we sin. If you're grandfather set off a bunch of nuclear bombs, you and everyone else would have to live with the effects of the radiation. Adam screwed up the world and now we all have to live in it.

I tried it already. It didn't work.
