Cute, yes, but sinless?!? The Bible consistently teaches original sin.
James Bond, "most"?!?
AnimeHyuugaFanatic, what on earth does baptism have to do with getting rid of original sin?!? Scripture please?
Richard, I trust that you did not mean the term "blood" to be taken literally. Yes, we all inherit sin from our 1st parents, but it is not a physiological problem.

Well I have 2 babies, and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are born with a sin nature! They don't really start sinning until they are a bit older, but you can see the tendencies there already: selfishness, rage, rebellion, stubbornness. These are common things for little kids, even under a year old, to do, and it is because they have a sin nature. All of us have a sin nature, even babies. It's just that they aren't aware of it, they don't know right from wrong yet, and so they don't understand why having a tantrum or smacking their sibling or mouthing off at mommy is wrong.
But yeah, they have sin in them too. They couldn't be born without sin! All things bring forth after their kind, yes? Everything. Including humans. And since we are sinners, our children have that same sinful nature, right from birth.
I don't see what their cuteness has to do with it though, because babies are indeed cute!

I don't think sin is an appropriate word for babies. Every child is born selfish - it is in their genes and has to be. They depend upon parents and demand to be fed and looked after. As they develop they develop a sense of what pleases their parents and what does not. From this eventually after a couple of years, or more, they develop the idea of right and wrong. It is only then that the word sin might be appropriate.
God calls everyone to be members of the 'body of Christ' and this involves a transformation which takes the individual from 'darkness' into 'light'. When people deliberately choose darkness then the word sin can be correctly applied.

Babies are human beings and all human beings are born into this world with a sinful nature. There has only been one baby born without sin and that was Jesus.

The bible states that everyone born after Adam is born in his likeness. This is to say that we have all inherited the sin problem and are therefore born Spiritually dead hence the need for us to be "born again" It is this inner condition which sends people to hell yet many refuse to believe they are sinners even though the Lord has gone to great lengths to tell us so.

All men have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, this is inherent sin from Adam, that baby one day will have to die also, why sin.

i think that babies are born with sin. since adam and eve sinned, it is passed on to us.. and even if we were born without sin, sooner or later, we would still do sin

Even if they are born without sin (debatable amongst different christians), most of them eventually do "Sin", so it's a moot point.

Some of them are born with disease because of their mothers.
EDIT: Some of them are born with diseases. Babies addicted to drugs, for example. True, yes or no? The Bible says that that happens when you don't have God's protection. What seperates you from God is sin - plain and simple.
