A discussion of Original Sin and how it has affected mankind, this is the twenty second in a series of lectures on the Catholic Catechism recorded in 1965 by Archbishop Fulton J Sheen in the privacy of his own study and first broadcast under the title 'Life is Worth Living'. A master communicator, Fulton Sheen recorded this insightful overview of the teachings of the Holy Catholic Church.
God said our first parents, Adam and Eve, would possess certain gifts if they passed the test of love. Eating the fruit they were forbidden to eat was an act of contempt and rebellion. We have inherited this abuse of freedom from them. The sin of Adam was passed on to all of us.
