07 - Original Sin
Crash Course Catholicism
Original sin can seem a little... unfair. Why do I have to suffer for something Adam and Eve did? Does the Catholic church teach that we're all born terrible people? (Spoiler: it doesn't.) In this episode we discuss the elevation and fall of man. This episode covers Part One, Section Two, Chapter One, Paragraphs 6 and 7 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
