I do not believe a person is held accountable for sin until they reach the age of accountability.........when they know moral right from wrong
Babies do not need baptised
they have not sinned

No, I don't. Why would I?
What use would it be for that newborn?
But maybe I don't think "people born with sin" just because I can't see the use of the concept 'sin' at all. Try to clarify that point ... or try other answers

We are all born with sin. Since sin was first started with Adam and Eve, every generation for the rest of time will be born with sin. The only thing we can do about that sin, is ask Jesus for the forgivness of sin.

In order to truly understand this question, please refer to Ezekiel
18: read the entire chapter! I will take one paragraph out of this
chapter to provide some background on your question.
Notice Ezekiel18:4, "Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine:the soul that sinneth, it shall die." Here the Lord is letting us know that every man is going to be judged by his own works. Like you said, "How can a newborn have sin?" The child can't!
Notice verse 14; "Now, lo, if he beget a son, that seeth all his father's sins which he hath done, and considereth, and doeth not
such like,...
" The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteous shall be upon him, and wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him." People are only judged by the work that they do!

Dear zificos,
The Bible tells us that we are born in sins and trespasses. You can see this readilty also. Do you need to teach a child to do wrong? No, they know how to lie among other things from birth. A parent must teach his/her child how to do right because human beings have a sinful heart (Jeremiah 17:9). We read in Psalms 51:5, "Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me." We also read in Psalms 58:3, "The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies."

It is the Sin Nature we are borne with. A baby has no sin.

We are all born with the Original sin, which was passed down from Adam and Eve!

We all inherit the sin nature at birth. A newborn is obviously not accountable.God in his sovereignty determines "an age of accountability)" for each person. Please understand that God is fair and loving-and it is not his will that any should perish.

No, no one has any sin. Sin isn't real unless you believe in it. But i think the idea behind it is that since we a human, we are inherently bad. But that's all wrong. We aren't good or bad, we just are.

We are all born sinless sorry to burst your bubble Christians.
O son of Adam don't be a slave to others when God created you free.
