The Nature of Sin and Human Choice

Sin is a complex concept closely tied to human nature and free will, as explored in the discussion. The argument presented suggests that if all humans sin, it may imply that sin is an inherent aspect of human nature, akin to basic survival instincts. However, traditional Christian doctrine asserts that while humans have a tendency to sin due to a corrupted nature, they were originally created morally innocent and capable of choosing not to sin. This perspective emphasizes that sin does not define human existence, but rather, it is a result of a fall from an initial state of moral purity.
