CCC: our infallibilists in paragraphs #404-406 hold forth on original sin. Adam
and Eve committed a “personal sin” that affected human nature and was
transmitted in a fallen state. OS is “contracted” not “committed,” resulting in
a deprivation of original holiness and justice. Humanity is “not totally
corrupted” but has “wounded powers.” Baptism erases original sin and turns man
back to God. Man is weakened and inclined to sin. Augustine and the Protestant
Reformers with their “radical perversion of humanity” resulting in the “destruction
of freedom” was addressed by Trent and the Second Council of Orange.
Westminster Larger Catechism 188:
