Sounds credited. And the fact that it was committed by people we don't even know reinforces the theory of quantum mechanics. There is just one entity in this universe that divided like amoeba. One day we will all come together and realize we were just one and fought ourselves to death.

"original sin" is so dumb

just because women (eve) can't follow simple instructions, all of mankind is "fallen" and doomed to this shitty mortal existence?

yeah ok "god" lmao

So your entire livelihood was dictated by a woman. But guess who decided to create that woman? A man. And that man, "God" decided to submit humanity to pain and suffering caused by a woman he himself created.

Who's the smarty there?

Are you pointing to a difference between "sin" and "original sin"?

If we see sin all around us and within us, and if we recognize that somehow the world isn't right, that something has gone astray, then it is natural to want to locate the cause.

What is the origin of sin? Estrangement from God.

Or are you saying that my calling sin a fact has nothing to do with whether original sin is simplified karma? As in, bad (immoral) action --> bad (unpleasant) result?

This is a simplified view, certainly, but too much so.

original sin, traditionally from the catholic perspective, is the inherent "guilt" man is born with. the karma of past lives

from a dualistic paradigm, to sin, as a verb, is an act that is damaging to us. sinning is both the result and cause of karma

'karama' as a religious construct (1) has less explanatory power, and (2) is more theoretically encumbered, than the doctrine of 'sin':

re: (1) fails to provide an account of forgiveness through faith and grace

re: (2) posits divine record keeping and, in its traditional form, posits a (meta)physical substance where this record keeping takes place

you dont need "forgiveness" silly and faith is an action rather than just believing in prevalent dogma. as for "divine record keeping" its called the akashic record it is much older than christianity

there is nothing to be forgiven. this is a creation of the guilt based anthropomorphic model of God.

its not a matter of it being necessary, it was discovered through experience. western theologians basically have no idea what they are talking about bc everything is an argument/exercise. some things can simply be known through practice and experimentation

if god is not a person then how do we relate to him?

additionally, how can there be justice if moral actions are scored on a naturalist accounting system?

divine personhood isn't a delusion, its logically necessary for love and justice. without it, you're left with affective raw feels and naturalistic moral accounting, which reduce to emotional hedonism and an ethics of power.

im not sure what your argument is. are you saying divine personhood is impossible because you've never experienced it, or that there is no set of facts that could make divine personhood theoretically possible?

again, divine personhood is the only logical explanation for the existence of love and justice. Hindus had not yet had the benefit of the event of calvary, and so could not yet see outside themselves, as persons, to the divine personhood in whos image they were made.

Hinduism has contributed greatly to religious and metaphysical thinking, but it is ultimately underdeveloped, as evidenced at least in part by its treatment of morality as naturalistic and its treatment of love as emotive.

only in the person and work of Christ does the divine personhood come to light.

exclusive? the event on the cross was world-historic and is freely available to all. the development of the human intellect is a shared project to which all races contributed. but to suggest that the VHS tape that is Hinduism is still relevant in a world of Christian streaming services is to be a metaphysical luddite.
