I never taught my child to throw a fit at wal-mart. People are born with a sin nature. The heart of man is wicked and only through learning do we know what is socially acceptable then morally acceptable. Babies are great but no more innocent than an adult.

No one is born innocent, in fact when we are born we are all born into a world of sin. We are all therefore sinners even though one is a new baby, he/she is still a sinner. All of this came about at the fall of man due to the disobedience of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden.
I don't think that when they are taught language that they understand sin. I do think that from the environment each babe is in and what they hear and see makes for the adapting and comprehension of right and wrong.

Babies aren't born innocent; they inherited their sinful nature from Adam and Eve. No one has to teach a baby to sin; it comes naturally.

Huh?? Your question makes no sense whatsoever to me. Children learn what they are taught. It doesn't surprise me that a child can learn from context that "sin" means "bad". But they won't understand the subtle connotational differences until later in life, after more indoctrination.

They are taught the meaning of the word "sin" too.
If a child was isolated from others and never heard the word "sin" he would have no clue what it means.

You learn to speak when you are 2 years old. A 2 year old is not a baby and has already experienced the difference of good and bad. =/

the body is born with instinct not innocence.sin is god's tool for us to grow with.your soul and spirit enters the body after 3 years then the memory starts,we sin naturally for growth,just like falling and getting up again so you learn how to walk,simple.

Because they were never born innocent. For Adam and Eve's sins, we all suffer, and all are born sinful.

Babies do not understand sin. Which one told you it did?
