But Adam's sin was imputed to us without us asking for it, according to your theology, so why should we have to ask for salvation from it? If God were to be perfectly fair about it, the salvation from Adam's sin should be imputed to us in exactly the same manner as the sin was.

One of the reasons Calvinism is so hard-core about predestination to hell and heaven is because it tries to address this paradox.

Well, that is not entirely true. We do not have to answer for Adam's sin, just our own (which is enough, of course, for all of us). That's why infants don't need to be baptized - they belong to Christ already.

If God were to be perfectly fair about it,

Ha!...What seems fair to us may not make much difference to God...Would seem that Esau and Ishmael didn't think God was too fair...

I'm not too big on Calvinism...Seems there's too much evidence in the Bible that we ALL have the choice to call on the Lord and get saved...I believe it was the church that was predestinated, not the individual....
