No, with original sin Catholics believe a baby is born stained with sin.Do they both believe man is morally neutral?
Oh, so that's only an Islamic belief?No, with original sin Catholics believe a baby is born stained with sin.
Islam doesn't teach Original Sin. It's closer to Judaism there.Oh, so that's only an Islamic belief?
Islam agrees with Judaism and Eastern Christian Orthodoxy, in that regard.Oh, so that's only an Islamic belief?

Oh okay. Maybe that's the church I was thinking of. I usually turn out as Jewish when I take a religion quiz though. If only I were more disciplined, I'd probably be Noachide.Islam agrees with Judaism and Eastern Christian Orthodoxy, in that regard.
You're not the only one!I'm sort of feeling like a Christian but my personal philosophy/cosmology/theology isn't.
So I just got done philosophizing about evil. What's your theory on it?You're not the only one!
That question you asked is foundational but you probably already know that.I'm sort of feeling like a Christian but my personal philosophy/cosmology/theology isn't.
Evil is the result of human actions. It's the result of failure to do good or the shunning of goodness.So I just got done philosophizing about evil. What's your theory on it?
Yep. I'm trying hard to make my thoughts the center of my search.That question you asked is foundational but you probably already know that.
That's literally what I put on paper. Evil is choosing to reject moral law and in effect failing to do right.Evil is the result of human actions. It's the result of failure to do good or the shunning of goodness.
In Catholic theology, this is sort of a tough nut to crack, therefore different Catholic theologians have different takes on exactly what "original sin" is. It is certainly not viewed as a "sin" in the conventional sense of that word., nor is it viewed that a person who is not baptized is automatically going to hell in a hand-basket. Even if they are, I'll take care of them when they arrive., with original sin Catholics believe a baby is born stained with sin.
To be fair I think the second Vatican likely gets rid of the nonsense of sending babies to hell for being atheists and unbaptized. They sure do get that baby to the waters pretty quickly, 7 days I think it is. IdK I didn't baptize any of my kids. In catechism I was taught we are born with a mark on our soul and baptism washes it away.In Catholic theology, this is sort of a tough nut to crack, therefore different Catholic theologians have different takes on exactly what "original sin" is.

Actually that was never taught-- at least officially. The move towards using more towards infant baptism was done largely during the plagues as there was a question what would happen to a child since it says in Mark that one "needs to believe and be baptized to be saved". So, the issue was really more a question than an answer. So, it was done by most in order to cover the situation just in case, split in two and supplemented by the sacrament of confirmation.To be fair I think the second Vatican likely gets rid of the nonsense of sending babies to hell for being atheists and unbaptized.
There's no set time. In my wife's Italian tradition, for example, the baby was not to be taken outside after getting home until the baptism could be performed at the church. We followed that custom, but the number of days it took varied.They sure do get that baby to the waters pretty quickly, 7 days I think it is
Ya, that was one teaching.In catechism I was taught we are born with a mark on our soul and baptism washes it away.
