Please provide scriptural reference for that. Something as important as that surely has our Lord somewhere speaking on that knowledge?

Also then please tell me how the following had their original sin removed:
Noah
Abraham
Joseph
Moses
Daniel
David

Just for starters

No it doesn’t because there is no such thing even mentioned in Scripture.

This is what is required for forgiveness; the blood of Jesus and we are promised forgiveness for sin when we confess it.

1 John 1:7-9 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

The Old Testament teaches that the children do not inherit the sins of their parents.

Romans 6:3 teaches that unborn children have not sinned. They have done “neither good nor evil.”

Thus, children are sinless until they grow to an age of accountability, a time when they know good from evil and can choose.

As we stand before the Lord in Revelation 20 giving an account of our deeds, one of our deeds will NOT be Adam’s sin.

" Baptism REMOVES ORIGINAL SIN, so if you Protestants don’t get Baptized until you are much older, then YOU ALL are living with ORIGINAL SIN!! "

"Actually since the non-baptized are usually non-converted, then such are under condemnation - as are Catholics who imagine that the act of their infant baptism regenerated them and or faith in the salvation-by-merit gospel of Rome will save them. Versus penitent, heart-purifying, regenerating effectual faith, (Acts 10:43-47; 15:7-9) which is imputed for righteousness, (Romans 4:5) and is shown in baptism and following the Lord, (Acts 2:38-47; Jn. 10:27,28) and by which faith the redeemed soul is "accepted in the Beloved, (Eph. 1:6)

As for "ORIGINAL SIN!!" you consigned millions of aborted infants to having died in that condition, which in Catholicism is speculated to mean such can never see the Beatific Vision but only have a natural happiness though they do not know what they are missing. Ignorance in bliss, or Limbo if a word must be used. Yet which isd still contrary to Catholic assertions here that baptism is essential. (https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/unbaptized-infants-12342)

Yet not only are infants not culpable for their actions (and one of the most reiterated teachings in Scripture is that offspring are not be charged with guilt over what their ancestors did, Deuteronomy 24:16; cf. 2Ki 14:5,6; 2Ch 25:4; Jer 31:29,30; Eze 18:20) likewise are they not positively credited for what they had no choice in doing, as in baptism), but while all creation presently suffers the effects of Adam's sin, Scripture indicates even creation, as a "victim" of man's sin, shall somehow see the opposite:

For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. (Romans 8:20-23)

Best to leave such as speculation, while focusing on what is certain. In which the redeemed are those who come to God as sinners knowing their desperate need of salvation - not as soul saved by their works or church affiliation, but as destitute of any means or merit whereby they may find salvation - and with a humble and penitent heart (that wants a new life following Christ) believe on the crucified and risen Lord Jesus who alone can save them on His account, by His sinless shed blood and righteousness. And who thus are baptized and follow Him (and repent when they find that they failed to do so). Thanks be to God!
