Original sin is a matter of conjecture many Christian scholars reject. I think if one really believed he would not use original sin as an excuse.

Three of these efforts had endured among them: two of the three had also borne export (in modified forms) to non-Semitic peoples. Christianity, translated into the diverse spirits of Greek and Latin and Teutonic tongues, had conquered Europe and America. Islam in various transformations was subjecting Africa and parts of Asia. These were Semitic successes. Their failures they kept to themselves. The fringes of their desert were strewn with broken faiths."
