The Bible, including Jesus and the New Testament, promotes the idea that we are "born in sin and shaped in inequity."

It seems like "The Sins of the Father" are those very things that we are "born" in and what "shapes" us. There is no escaping it. What we have today is a product of the past. That includes what we know, how we see the world, etc.

But, anytime someone can figure out how to apply get me out of paying a share of the National Debt, e.g., that's from some time or decision made before I was born or of age... I'm all ears. lol
