In Christianity this term is referred to Adam’s and Eve’s loss of innocence after disobeying God’s instruction in Garden of Eden. Most Christian denominations believe that the fall corrupted the entire natural world, including human nature, causing people to be born into original sin, a state from which they cannot attain eternal life without the gracious intervention of God. When God created Adam and Eve, he originally made them sinless, and he intended for them to remain that way. But the eating of the forbidden fruit somehow transformed human nature. Some Christians believe that our natural tendency to sin is transmitted from generation to generation by male semen.
