It must be good to know "Truth".
People who have lived long enough to recover from teenage Jesus Camp experiences normally learn a little nuance about their religion. They realize that the bible has contradictions, ancient story, myth. They realize that the answers that the bible gives are often not sufficient to explain life with respect to a modern education. They often find that they stop worrying about what their pastor says about what God allegedly thinks about their neighbors and just start living life as a human being.
You come here and think you have things all figured out. Here is what I believe.
- The priests invented "sin" to try to explain how a perfect God could've created an imperfect world and imperfect humans.
- The explanation makes no sense even to an ancient mind, because it requires God to be the creator of sin.
Where is your "sin"? What does "sin" look like? Is it a part of our DNA? Does it float around in the wind? The bible infers that sin is disobedience to God. So, now the whole universe disobeys God because a person (Adam) living on some backwater planet became a conscious moral agent?
You have not clearly explained anything.
