I say everybody has sinned but everybody do not sin. What i mean is that for every soul living on earth we were born with sin i.e. the sin of Adam. Even in the Bible it states "for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" So everyone is a sinner. But then when i say everybody do not sin i mean that some people give their life to Christ totally and therefore sin becomes like an abomination to them. Although there are some sins which we commit and we do not know about as long as you ask God for forgiveness of your sins everyday, then you are forgiven.

Yes and yes. Even a newborn has the Original Sin which is cleansed in baptism.
God created us to love and praise Him all the time. Therefore, every second you are NOT doing this is sinful. (Yes, it is possible to do this just like when you fell in love the first time and could do nothing else.)
As for not sinning after being born again..., not true. What happens is you no longer have the HABIT of sin, but you do continue to sin. Not as bad as before, though.

Sin is a catch-all term for those thoughts and actions that seperate us from God.
Our human nature is to do things for immediate gratification- we live for the flesh, for the immediate experience. Unless we have some sort of higher purpose, we choose sinfully.
Sunday afternoon helping a elderly neighbor paint or watch the game? Looking at an attractive person- admiring the grace of a human body or thinking about something else? Lying to cover yourself or being honest and taking the heat?
Every day, we have a million choices to make, a billion hidden thoughts. Many of them are perfectly neutral, and certainly many of them are driven by some higher purpose. But, even in the best of us, some of them are pretty base and self-serving.
We all sin.

It is true that WE don't know everyone but God does. The Bible says that all have sinned and none are righteous. It also say that looking at a women with lust in your heart is as bad as committing adultery and that hating your brother is as bad as murdering him. Even after being born again, I have yet to meet anyone who claims they are perfect and totally free from sin. It is just a daily walk to try to be more like Jesus and less like the world.

The reason that I believe all people sin is because, e.g. has anyone asked you how you feel and you say OK and it is not true.
That is a sin.
Has anyone asked doI look OK and you say yes and you really don't want to hurt their feeling and they don't really look ok.
That is a sin.
Has anyone asked you do you believe me and you don't but you say yes.
That is a sin.
I think you are thinking as sins like taking the wife of another or killing someone.......well a sin is when you don't truly answer and do anything that is not correct. So unless you go around telling people exactly what is on your mind....you are a sinner too.

everyone sins but once they are born again the are forgiven of their sins though they constantly have to come back and confess them and they do need to try and improve. often they will stop doing some sins or will try to anyway. the best thing about being born again is that you can spend time with god and the more you do so the more difference it makes and the more he talks to you (well the more you notice it).

The Bible says "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
Romans 3:23
We are all born with a sin nature. If you don't believe that why is it true we don't have to teach children to do bad things, it just comes naturally. We have to teach children how to be nice to others and use manners.

The Scripture plainly states that "ALL have sinned and fallen short of the kingdom of Heaven". It means that we bear the sin-curse from birth until we come to the knowledge of our sins and are able to bear the responsibility through them through repentance, water baptism, sanctification, and being filled with the Holy Ghost.

You sin before you know what it even is. Talk back to your parents? Lie, even a small one. Anyone with kids will tell you a three year old will lie to get out of trouble.
Yea, weve all sinned.
