Brianna Your using logic again. We told you that logic is not allowed in christian thinking. You need to stop doing that.
The first thing that someone should be considering is whether the idea of sin is actually real.
If God is supposed to be perfect how could She have made anything or anyone that wasn't.
Think about it. The idea of sin assumes certain things about God that seem highly unlikely.
All this talk about sin sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me.
First it assumes a God who is too incompetent to organize a simple educational field excursion and figure out a way to get all of the students home safely.
How likely is this that God would not be smart enough to come up with a plan for our salvation that is going to work?
It also assumes that God must have created us imperfect if we are sinners.
One might assume that God would be able to create someone perfect each and every time if he chose to. Assuming God is capable of this, then it follows logically that we must be perfect creations if we are actually creations of this perfect God.
Unless of course you are saying that God chose to create us imperfect.
If God created us imperfect then anything that may go wrong is Gods fault, not ours. This seems a bit illogical at best so I think that we need to assume that What God creates would have to be perfect.
If this is the case and Gods creations are perfect, then nothing that we can do could change what God created perfect and make it imperfect unless we think that we are more powerful than God is.
How likely is it that we the creation could be more powerful than the creator. I personally find this idea somewhat amusing, and a bit absurd.
Religion tells us that God is perfect. If this is true then it could hardly be logically for Gods creations to be considered to be anything less than perfect.
If this is the case then Nothing that we can ever do could possibly change this perfection that God willed, unless we were so powerful that our choices could override and change the will of God.
How likely is that????
Think about it.
The idea of sin is simple nonsense; a lie made up about God by religion.
Love and blessings

If that were the case, then people all over the world need to stop getting married and having kids and any pregnant mothers need to run to the nearest abortion clinic before they produce another seed of sin.
The question almost makes abortion sound like a mercy killing, which is dead wrong. Abortion IS murder. And no, I am not doing the world a favor by stopping a sinful baby from being born. It's not the babies fault. That's disgusting. The baby has the right to be born and to live a full life just like you and me and everyone else. Originial sin was the fault of our first parents, and Jesus came and saved us from that sin.

The original sin was not murder! It was the disobedience to God.
Thou shall not kill, properly translated word is Murder.
No where can you show anyone a baby is sinful.
Jesus said Such is the Kingdom of God. The wonderful all Believing all trusting that a little child has toward their loving parents. We are born into a sinful world! Not from the act Mommy and Daddy did to make us!

You are confused about the concept of Original Sin. We are not guilty of Original Sin but affected by it.
Original sin is the sin by which the first human beings disobeyed the commandment of God, choosing to follow their own will rather than God's will.
As a consequence they lost the grace of original holiness, and became subject to the law of death; sin became universally present in the world.
Original sin describes the fallen state of human nature which affects every person born into the world, and from which Christ, the "new Adam," came to redeem us.
Therefore the answer to your second question is "no."
With love in Christ.

The original sin is passed down from our original forefather and mother, Adam and Eve. At Baptism, the sin gets washed away. So, there is no need to kill the little sinner when he's born because he will be cleansed. And anyway, should the baby be given the death penalty for a sin that was actually committed by an ancestor? Play fair.

Not all believe that way..
We IFB (bible believing Independent Fundamental baptists)...do not believe in that stuff. We believe that man was made in God's image...and that man sinned after having lived in a perfect relationship as God had wanted. From then on our children are born in the likeness of Adam, with the tendency to sin. A baby cannot sin. A baby cannot go against God....it cannot go against commandments...it has to grow up out of infancy to do so. While it is in our nature to want to sin...we're never taught how to lie or cheat or whatever...
Christ came to take away our sin...so why wouldn't we want to have our children born into the world so they can come to Christ and go on to heaven at some point? Taking their lives before birth is simply murder...who knows what God may have had in store for that child as it grows up. It's not our choice to make...God created the child and it's His choice when it dies...not ours as the parents.
BTW--the first sin was disobeying God and listening to Satan, and it was Eve who did it. No where is murder involved. Cain did the first murder when he killed Abel.

The baby may be sinful but there is also a merciful God. Just because the baby is sinful at birth does not mean a thing we are all sinful no matter how old we are. but God is good and can wipe away anyones sins and give them a fresh start

Original sin is a poor excuse to rationalize an abortion. Abortion is murder. Aren't you glad your mother was pro-life?

all the above communities "have faith" that Mary existed. Protestants besides the fact that have a no longer undemanding time grasping how she could be the mummy of God. Protestants even have faith Roman Catholics "worship" Mary yet they do no longer they honor her for her place contained in the Bible. the rationalization you do no longer see Protestants clashing with Orthodox as lots because of the fact Orthodox are no longer elementary the place protestants are and vise versa. Roman Catholics are available in touch with Protestants greater so which you greater many times see those 2 "clashing".

Briana the goddess ? Does the word egomaniac have any meaning to you. Are you capable of the sense of embarrassment? Have you considered the possibility you know little of science or the Bible. Stop the pretense. Stop your attempted harassment of Christians. Find something meaningful to do with your life. You"ll never understand anything unless you have the necessary IQ to realize that some people have something you don't, a soul.
