This inclination is called concupiscence.Ĭlick to expand.You are going the same direction I had in mind. It is subject to ignorance, to suffering, and to the dominion of death and is inclined toward sin. In consequence of original sin human nature, without being totally corrupted, is wounded in its natural powers. What other consequences derive from original sin? This transmission remains a mystery which we cannot fully understand.ħ7. Because of the original unity of all human beings, it is transmitted to the descendants of Adam “not by imitation, but by propagation”. It is a sin “contracted” by us not “committed” it is a state of birth and not a personal act. Original sin, in which all human beings are born, is the state of deprivation of original holiness and justice. I hope that an Orthodox Christian will provide a definition of the doctrine of Ancestral sin, so that we can discuss these two supposedly opposing doctrines. So below I will give a definition from the Compendium of the CCC which is the shortest most concise official definition I could find.
I couldn't find much on the web about ancestral sin, except in some contrast posts by Orthodox Christians, who didn't really present original sin correct to start off with.
The purpose of this thread is to compare and contrast these two approaches concerning the first sin, and how that sin affects.well all of us.
