The first mention of the concept of Original Sin is found, not in Genesis, where the fatal event was supposed to happen, but in the fifth chapter of Romans, written by Paul. According to Paul, humanity was cursed because Adam sinned when he ate of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
If Original Sin is a doctrine created by Christianity and imposed upon Jewish scriptures, what reason is there to take it seriously?
