Original sin is the reason for the fact all men are fallen. It is the reason no man can love and obey God unless and until God regenerates that man and gives him new eyes and new ears to know the truth, to understand the things of God and to believe.

Original or ancestral sin or inherited sin in no proves double predestination or limited atonement, etc.

God does not doom to hell fetuses en mass for what their great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great... grandparents did. You’re describing a blood feud.

"Original sin is the reason for the fact all men are fallen."

No, it is the means by which all men are fallen. The reason is so that we must choose and achieve Salvation.
