The explanation of the concept of original sin as detremental to people is interesting. The presumption is that the author has an understanding of Christianity since he/she attributes the concept to this religion. However if one were to examine the concept of original sin in the Bible, one would find that the claim is a natural turning from "God's will" and that we are inherently prone by our nature to reject the wishes of God. One example is children...they are not taught to be selfish, it's inherent. Some of the first words out of their self-absorbed mouths are "me" and "mine". Then comes "momma" or "dada", and that's only because they want something from them. Just a thought...thanks for the chance to add a message!

And why exactly is it sinful for an individual to do his own will instead of that of Demon?
