[continued...]

[*] Because of our lack of understanding and our imperfect knowledge, it is highly improbably that we can ever adequately understand the actions that God takes to fulfill or advance whatever prerogative he chooses.

I agree, that in our own lifetime, we may not understand "the gods" reasoning in creating us or why? Yet, I do believe we, as a species, we can and ARE doing a pretty good job, of getting a grasp of the sentient nature of ALL THAT IS and it's/our own make up and the way it works. Once more of us comprehend and begin to live within that knowing, we will be able, as a species, to evolve past our current state, as a whole. I may not live to see it in this round, but I do believe I will see it.

[*]Sin is not a matter of good and evil, but a simple case of what is right(without any context of morality) and what is wrong(without any context of morality).

In my opinion, the word Sin, is, within itself, a word much like demon. It has a shelf life...and it's expiration date is upon us. This word has way too much baggage to be carried into our next evolutionary state of being. Even those very close to the "gods" of the scriptures predicted it's demise.

[*]Morality is an extension of this ideal that consists of a set or preferences for things that have been tested over time and deemed either controversial or damaging to the individual, community, environment, or species.

Morality, much like the word Sin, has a shelf life. At some point, it's meaning will be so diverse, it will no longer have use.

[*]Inherited Sin is equivalent to compounded mistakes. An incorrect idea passed down from teacher to student. These mistakes often have physical counterparts that affect our very physical existence and thus are further compounded as they become genetically degrading.

I agree, if you are saying above that there really is no such thing as inherited sin. This idea "may" have been a scare tactic of the "gods" much like the hell fire and damnation preaching's we have endured for the last few centuries. Or, may have been a misinterpretation by the the prophets. Either way, it may have been meant for a purpose to guide and direct the child like creatures we "were" but no longer are. Even Jesus came to proclaim this a dead thought we are no longer bonded to. Altho it is true, we are a product of our gene pull/pool, yet, our genes are only one part of the sentient being that we are. Especially now, because of technology and our connectivity to ourselves, we have the ability to overcome our gene pool and environment, many times, by emotional balance in our reasoning alone. That doesn't mean a tomato can become a potato...it just means we can choose to be a better quality tomato, if we choose (unlike a tomato of course).

[*]Because of our imperfect understanding, this damage is irreversible by any means which humanity now possess, or will ever possess in the future, that has been derived from our own knowledge.

I am completely lost about what the above sentence means...care to clarify?
