Try reading the Bible sometime. I can find depravity all though it. Man is a sinner. You are a sinner, I am a sinner. If you are saved by the grace of God, as I am, you are STILL a sinner, but a saved one. No man is perfect, no man comes to God UNLESS he is called by God. Anyone who says anything else is confused, a fool, or a liar. A fool says in his heart there is no sin.
I will agree you have a free will... to sin, and you exercise that will every day.
What no man has is a will to turn to God. No man does that.

“”What no man has is a will to turn to God.””

Nonsense,than we are not made in the image and likeness of God- free to chose goodness
