Sexton Blake Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Like many atheists, I think christians are christians because they have never read the bible. Take original sin: Genesis 3: 5. For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. The disgustine Augustine, a fourth century saint said that all are born sinful because of what our ancestors did a few hundred generations ago. Ridiculous, but let's look closer at the old fool's claim. If you eat the forbidden fruit, you then know the difference between good and evil. The bible says that. So before Adam and Eve had eaten of the forbidden fruit, they could not know it was evil to disobey God. The bible says that, in so many words. Adam and Eve did not do evil, so how can there be original sin, except as a lying claim to try and drag people into church for a blameless blame?
