I am not a Catholic, but was under the belief that Catholics practice infantile baptisms?
From all your quizzing I would ask why does the Catholic church practice it? Or possibly I am wrong on this point.
And you are saying that one has no choice but to sin? I would say that it is practically impossible for most of us not to sin- at least for those who have attained the age of reason. For those who have not attained the age of reason (babies, small children) it is impossible for them to sin.
Again, sin requires consent on the part of a sinner. I do not understand how sinlessness makes one equal to God? There is only one God, none equal Him. Again I'll use the case of babies; you still have not explained what sin they committed. Let's throw in angels while we're at it- they're biblical; did all angels sin or just the bad ones? If they all did not sin, are the sinless ones equal to God?
If you interpret "all have sinned" literally, who is to say that your interpretation is right? I agree that Scripture is God breathed- but not the only absolute truth there is. Where does it say that in the Bible? Technically, Jesus is the absolute Truth. He is THE Word, the Truth and the Life.
I would never dispute God; I am disputing your interpretation of God's word. How do you know that you are right and that I am wrong? In all humility, I agree with G.K. Chesterton who said "a Catholic is a person who has plucked up courage to face the incredible and inconceivable idea that something else may be wiser than he is."

Some on this thread have accused Catholics of being infantile, and have posted pictures in an attempt to prove it; I won't waste the keystrokes to comment on that, but Catholics certainly do have their infants baptised. You partly answered your own question about baptism being the "new circumcision" in an earlier post. Circumcision was done 8 days after birth, if I remember correctly.
Baptism is the sacrament whereby that "original sin" inherited from Adam (inherited, NOT committed) is washed away, and we are made children of God. John 3:5 "Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God."
The only thing we can be sure of in this life is that we are not going to get out of it alive; knowing not the day nor the hour, we have our children baptised.
