"Now if you can provide some Scripture to show that sin entered the world through the woman, that she is responsible, then by all means, post it."

Eve was not named until after the fall (Genesis 3:20) at which Adam claimed dominion over her. Adam and Eve were of one flesh (Genesis 2:24) so the sin was shared equally. Just as it is a linguist convention to refer to all of humanity as man or mankind so was it when St. Paul was humanity that caused sin to enter the world. Were this not so death would not have spread to women, but only to all men (Romans 5:12).

Peace be with you.

And if a con-joined set of twins are separated, and one then kills someone; do they BOTH go to jail?

One the contrary, Paul explains how by the sin of one man, sin entered the world and by the righteousness of one man, Jesus, redemption came.

Sin didn't come through mankind. It clearly teaches ONE MAN.

Romans 5 could not be written more plainly. Paul even names that one man whose transgression brought the sin in verse 14.

Romans 5:14 Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come.

The depths of brainwashing that exists in Catholicism that keeps one from being able to read and understand the clear meaning of simply everyday words to communicate something is staggering.

Satan is still getting mileage out of that line of "Did God really say..... "?
