“I’m not sure what point you were trying to make... but nothing you posted here contradicts what I’ve said.”

You said you didn’t know how original sin was passed from generation to generation. I took that to mean you were doubting it was. Scripture says otherwise, of course.

You misunderstood. I was referring to a stain of sin being passed to those who had committed no sin themselves... that's a traditional, but flawed, way to see original sin. Rather, it's better viewed as something that was lost that successive generations had no way to get back... our family relationship with God. Please see my other posts for more on this.
