So to say that newborns do not have this condition and it is a learned condition takes away from the idea that God created us with this human condition

I do not believe God created us with this condition did He? Satan is the cause of the separation, not God.

M--First of all, please understand that what I say is my personal opinion and not necessarily correct. I believe that sinning is a learned process and a conscious choice of the individual so, babes have not yet had the chance to even know what sin is or what is right or wrong. I realize that this opinion may not be popular but, have never been known to win popularity contests.By the same token, having been a confirmed drunk, called an alcoholic by others, I do not believe that alcoholism is a disease and, for someone to say it is, is a cop-out. Also an excuse for the doctors to collect insurance money. To take a drink, and continue to drink excessively, is a conscious choice of an individual to chose alcohol as a crutch and hiding place, instead of facing the particular problems of his life head on like a man should. I'm sure that you can understand how unpopular this opinion can also be. I believe that babes are born with the capacity to sin but not with sin already attached.
