In order to expound the need of Christ further than what I have, it is imperative to review the seven dispositions that many of orthodoxy hold to. The first is innocence, that is, Adam being the physical representation of it. The fall is not a fable, for if it was then how can we explain the hideous, squalid, and vicious deeds we do to others and ourselves. If we blame natural processes than nature clearly states that the survival of the fittest deals with survival, not pleasure; and some, if not all of us, have done gross deeds to our fellow man for the purpose a vain pleasures-therefore the fall is true as your existence.With that fall came the creature called sin, a incessant fiend who resides in us all and due to our common parents succumbing to the temptation of the devil, we were (note the past tense) pushed away from God's presence instantly to be drenched in sin, suffering the consequences of it: murder, lying, hatred, racism, stealing, malice, lust, avarice, rape, jealousy, and such the like that truly we deserve nothing less but Hell.
But being born many years from this transition, the obvious question is what do I have to do with this? That's the wretched trick the devil knew and Adam and Eve failed to realize: this creature sin spreads and latches on to every birth into this world. So, none can escape it and the condition is a bleak one for there is nothing that can be done by mortal means to change this.
Yet we are not without hope, as seen in the next disposition called conscience, which will take us to a man called Noah.
