Original Sin.....

Why is this referred to as the Original Sin?
To me........God was experimenting in creating a perfect being close to his image and likeness. This first created was Adam a man. Having created Adam, God realized there was an error in his Chromosomes, for death and its causes were coded therein.So he went about correcting it. But this was time taking, and Adam saw God had created all other in pairs, and wanted to know why he was alone. So that Adam not be alone, he created woman as company. He wanted them to enjoy his creations, but restrained them from enjoying sex (Tree of Life) till he achieved the perfect being.  The thought forces which were anti god prompted Adam to enjoy Sex with Eve and like the other creations of God, informed (Tree of Knowledge) that they could create progeny and become creators like God. Thus Adam copulated with Eve and when God descended to meet them next, he realised they had disobeyed him and thereby faulted his efforts in creating the next perfect being. This pair would start multiplying and there would now be no stopping them. Like an atomic reaction man would multiply and fill the earth. In sadness he drove them away from his sight as the progeny were now to face death due to these genetic defects. This sin of disobedience of Adam was the origin of death. "Adam was to die, whether he sinned or not, as his creation was imperfect. His sin injured not only himself, but the entire human race" as Adam began transmitting the genetic stains which were defective, and thereby death. This transmission of death is easily understood as we see parents transmit hereditary diseases to their offspring. This transmission was being corrected by God when they disobeyed. This transmission of sin should be understood as the transmission of death.  To take the word sin to mean death is what is meant when we say that Adam caused sin in us. Many do not understand by sin the hereditary stain contracted at our birth, but the sin that adults commit in imitation of copulation as done by Adam. For us to conquer death we need to realise our mission here on earth and we are able to understand Redemption. The sin of Adam has injured the human race at least in the sense that it has introduced death. God was creating a being like himself who would never die. This perfection was lost forever. Here is question of physical death. First, the literal meaning of the word ought to be presumed unless there is some reason to the contrary.We must read death when we speak of sin, we should also understand that the disobedience of Adam has made us mortal we see that by one man two things have been brought on all men, sin and death, the one being the consequence of the other and therefore not identical with it. 


Original sin may be taken to mean the first sin that Adam committed. A consequence of this first sin, the hereditary stain with which we are born on account of our origin or descent from Adam. From the earliest times the latter sense of the word was more common, as may be told: "the deliberate sin of the first man is the cause of original sin". It is the hereditary stain that I deal with here. As to the sin of Adam we have not to examine the circumstances in which it was committed nor make the exegesis of the third chapter of Genesis.
