Did you have to teach your children to lie?
Steal?
Bogart the toys?
NO! But you did have to teach them that they should always tell the truth, not take something that doesn't belong to them, and share with others.
Right?

Yes. We are all born with original sin. If Adam and Eve hadn't betrayed God, we would be clean at birth from the day until we committed a sin. But yes, we are born sinners.

No this is a lie that religion tells us.
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 perfect.
Think about it. The idea of sin assumes certain things about God that seem highly unlikely.
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 and we are perfect creations of a perfect God 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.

yes
any honest parent can tell you that sin nature is evident in our children. I saw it from very early on when my daughter would start trying to test her boundaries, seeing how long she could go against what I told her before she got into trouble. doesn't mean she's a bad kid, but she is a sinner. has been that way from the beginning

yes, we are are born into sin, because it is our nature from Adam & Eve. No man is without sin.
However, by believing that Jesus was born the son of God sent here to wash your sins away so you can go before God & live in Heaven

We should all worry more about dieing sinners than being born one.

We are ALL Born with a Messed up Spirit.
LOST.
That messed up Spirit can't handle the Power of GOD.
Thank you Adam.
He did it, he did it, he did it, not GOD.
Gotta get that thing Recreated to make Heaven. Religion cannot Recreate you ( a Spirit, living in a Body), Jesus Christ CAN.
Jesus is Reality.

Yes, we are all born with a natural propensity to sin.
However, it is not counted against us until we reach the age when we know right from wrong and begin to make our choices regarding the same.
