Jesus also said, that unless you are like little children, you can not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Would He have said that if little children were born sinners? I don't think so. It wouldn't make any sense. The Church has always distorted Jesus' message to gain control over people. It did that for almost 2000 years through torture and murder. It can't control people like that any more, so now people are free to think for themselves without intimidation. There is no logic to the church teachings that Jesus died for our sins, and that plus other distortions of church teachings are the real reason people are disengaging from the church. There is no life in dead illogical teachings. Spirituality (direct connection with spirit or the Divine) speaks to people; religion with fixed creeds and dogma does not.
