No original sin? No need for a Christ? No Christianity?

Someone correct me, if Im missing something out here.

You cannot reverse the clock and your question is too hypothetical. The point is that in a situation back in time where a creature moves from a lesser to being more - human - in the transition there is bound to be short comings - which are more often referred to by churchy people as sins. This is the human condition as we struggle forward to become more authentic in our humanity. It has been determined that way. In the New Testament you will come across the statement ( in St Paul's letters) that we were created in futility but also subject in hope. There is no 'if'. Our condition is one where we have to struggle to rise and change our attitudes to fit into a more truer model of what we are meant to become. We were not created perfect but we are in the process of becoming.

Peace

Human are by nature bound to sin
if Adam and Eve did not sin then we would have be pure and would not have sinned.
but the most Important thing is that God has given Human the ability to think, the free will to choose what is good and bad.
If by mistake you sinned then you have to repent.
and
God is Most Gracious Most Merciful

If there is no sin then there is no free will for human
May be we would have been still in heven
May be there would have been no need to create this world.
May be there would have been no need for evil to be created
May be there may be Shatan would not have been created.
and May be
May be
may be

and who know there would not be any need for human to be created.
so why think of that just Thank God for what He had done for us
if it wouldnt have been for us nothing would have been created.
Man (man & women) is in the highest level of God's creation,
but if he doesnot submits his will to God then he is in the lowest level of God's Creation

If Adam and Eve had not sinned, then we, as their descendants would be free from sin and would live in an idyllic world, like The Garden of Eden. 1)* We would be agricultural husbandmen 2)* Also, a man would have one wife and one wife only! 3)* We could eat of the fruit of every tree, except the tree of knowing good and [knowing] evil. In other words, if we know evil, we will be separated from an Elohim who only knows good and righteousness, and death would follow 4)* Elohim wants us sinless. 5)*

Peaceful, paradise, plenty of animals running around loose and not afraid of us, no pollution, no bad weather to worry about. People would be learning how to play musical instruments, how to paint, how to tend a garden and grow all sorts of good food, learning how to cook good food. There would be no sick people in the world, no one dying, no blind ones, lame ones, old ones, no deaf people. We could go any where we wanted in the world and have friends and not have to worry about wars or that our neighbors would want what we have. We could build our own houses to any specifications that we wanted and live in those houses without having to pay $1000's of dollars a month for it. We could walk down to the stream out back and drink out of it without worrying that it's got parasites that will kill us. We could learn more than we ever thought possible about the earth, the galaxies, the stars, etc. We could study plants and insects, or animals. There's more than I could name that we could do. I look forward to the time when God will put the earth back the way he originally intended it to be. I have the hope that I will be there to see it all.

I tend to agree with the Companion !

The other side of the coin is that you can only comment on those questions which can be answered or is answerable. Unfortunately, this cannot be answered or is answerable.

We will land in more "ifs" and "buts" or "maybe" in our answer in order to come out with a possible answer which is impossible !

and life goes on...

Imagination isnt the same as cold hard FACTS. If adam and eve hadnt sinned, ONE OF US would have.

Deal with what IS, and not what coulda, or shoulda happened.

Well in the bible, when they were thrown out, it just says that God increased the pain of child birth...

So it's not to say they didn't have kids IN the garden...it would be a LOT better if they didn't get kicked out...

One of their children would inevitably have done it instead.

I learnt fairly quickly that one human is much the same as the next... and certain things are effectively inevitable. If you don't do it, someone else will....

It changes nothing.
