I got a simple question to all you sinners out there.......Why should I pay for the sin that Adam and Eve comitted????? 1st of al,l I was not the one who got the fruit from the tree. 2nd of all ,I didn't even know them ....(I don't care if they were my ancestors) and last but not least if God already knows everything that's going to happen..why would he put Adam and Eve near the tree in the first place when he knew that devil was going to be there???..If it wasn't for this event I would be in perfect paradise..so when i see Adam I'm going to have to kick his *** and as for Eve im going to slap her for convinving Adam to do it... thanks..have a good day

if adam & eve is true,i totally agree of what you have said.. why shall we pay for all the sin that they had done? and moreover, pple says that jesus died to wash away all the sins that the human have, so it should be resolve alr..

and also, pple believe that god (if he is exist) created all human being.. so god should treat all human equal regardless of which religion the human goes since he alr know what will happen...

The common christian understanding of what went on in the garden of Eden, and how it effects us, is missing a few key points. Recall that Adam and Eve didn't have children until AFTER they left the garden. That's because they couldn't, having kids is a condition of mortality, and they weren't mortal until they left the garden. So you wouldn't be living in paradise, you wouldn't be living at all.
Secondly, the concept of 'original sin' is not universal. In the LDS faith, we have what's called 'The Articles of Faith', and the second one reads: "We believe that man shall be punished for his own sins and not for Adam's transgression." (man here meaning 'humankind') Adam will pay for his transgressions, we pay for ours.
Thirdly, yes, what Adam and Eve did does affect us. Since when are we not affected by other's actions? If someone decides to drive drunk and crashes, do they just kill themselves? Not usually. Having the actions of others affect us is part of being human.
All of this, from Adam and Eve's transgression to our own sins is why God sent a Savior. So that no matter what happens, if we so choose, we can be washed clean.

I do not think your query is simple. 1st of all I think this is a made up scare tactic.Where In the bible does it say all future mankimankind will pay for this ? 2nd Adam + Eve were banished from Paradise and Eve was told now she will bring forth children in pain. I do not beleive we are all under there sin. I do not beleive the Garden of Eden is on earth, There is no place that "fits" Perhaps they were sent to earth as punishment. If i am wrong , Jesus came to give us redemtion from sin.

Well considering you are the descendent of Adam and Eve, and God wanted to punish them by making all their descendents go through the trials and tribulations of the world also, I would have to say yes, it's not your fault. But looking at your angry and somewhat vengeful attitude now, do you think that God would not have kicked you out of Eden also?

And secondly, this is a common misconception of Eve. While she picked the fruit, she did not know of Satan's deceptions when she fell into trangression. She was deceived. (Key words are the same as used in the Bible.) Adam was not deceived, and yet he did not protect Eve from the serpent's lies, and allowed her to consume the fruit and consume it too. So stop blaming Eve, she did not know!

If you happened to end up in Hell, you'd be paying for YOUR sins, not Adam and Eve's. And yeah, God knew that Adam and Eve would sin, that's why he stayed one step ahead of them (and Satan) by promising mankind salvation through Christ.

First of all , Jesus paid for all of our sins.
Second of all, Are you suggesting that you have not sinned therefore shouldnt have consiquences?
Third of all God placed the tree there because , contrary to
popular belief, GOD DOESNT WANT ROBOTS....He wanted
A people that would worship Him and obey Him because they
wanted to, not because they were forced. Yes He knows all
and sees all, But desired to give them the choice. Live with it.
LET IT GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AND BE FREEEEEEEEE.....giggles

If God never did that he will never know to what extent is the obedience of man to him. Through those things that happened, God has drawn things of greater good from that evil. God tests the faith of men trough those things. He rewards those that are good and punishes the evil one.

Original sin is a Christian false belief. In Islam, we believe each person is born pure of sin and each person is accountable for his or her own life. Each person is also responsible for his or her own salvation by building a loving relationship with God.
