No I do not believe people have sin from Adam and Eve. The entire story is made up. People will argue with me till they are blue in the face, telling me I am wrong but it is the truth.

Adam and Eve are fictional characters. Many Christians actually believe that several generations of inbreeding resulted in the human race. They also believe a lot of other goofy stories. It is beyond me why they would choose to follow this delusional mind frame.

The myth of the sin of Adam and Eve represents how humans choose to disobey God and allow sin to enter the world. This first sin or Original Sin does effect us.
We are all influenced by the sin of others and by the sin of our parents. We learn from them good and bad. Prejudice is one example.
Another example would be if our parents drink too much or smoke. As a child, exposed to this environment, we are greatly influenced by what our parents do or do not do.
When we reach the age of reason, we are responsible for our own actions. This is even more so as we grow into adults.
As adults we have the free will to participate in the sin of others or to choose not to.

Adam's sin has been passed on the all people.Romans 5: 12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: The only way to take of our sins is to believe and trust that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins.

Adam & Eve are the creations of ancient religion who didn't have enough knowledge to realize that if people from the same family inbreed, the children are born with genetic deformities. Religion loves people who don't think.

Adam and Eve were the first humans to sin. I say the first humans, because technically, as far as we know, Satan was the first to rebel (sin) against God. We do not get sin from them, we are simply born sinners, but with free will to choose either to follow God or our own selfish desires.

Yes. An example: If a father and mother are killed in and have a huge debt to pay, the estate of the parents needs to be satisfied. The children of the deceased are required to pay the price of the bankruptcy.

Adam and Eve sin and ours is similar. We now can enter into solvency again through Jesus Christ. Heaven is open to us through Jesus.

Yes, sin is the result of Adam's disobedience to God, which every human being must see death, even Enoch and Elijah who have not died yet(the two witnesses in Revelations, they will killed by the Beast aka the Antichrist).

Everyone is born spiritually dead; separated from God because of sin. Jesus said that when a person is reborn they will be brought back to life spiritually, thus giving us eternal life.

No more than they have sin from the Pied Piper. The bible is a book. There are many other books. Perhaps if you read some of the others, this wouldn't be so confusing.

Well, kind of.

See, Adam and Eve decided to sin, and we inherited our sinful nature from them.
In sinful nature, I mean how we are constantly sinning, and can't seem to stop. We do it without even thinking sometimes. And we are sinners from birth: it's not something taught.

But even if we didn't have a sinful nature, we would still be able to sin, it just wouldn't be like an instinct.

The entire earth (people included) groans and trevails under the weight of Adam's sin.
