Or just that God hates us all. There is a deep hatred there if we are being punished for shit some d-bag did thousands of years ago.

Has a 2-year-old with a brain tumor ever sinned? And besides, why would a sin, especially a minor one, carry a death sentence?
A two-year-old with a brain tumor is a descendant of Adam, and hence, born with a "sin nature".
As far as a two-year old "knowing" what sin is, and that he/she has a sin nature, the answer is no, so God does not hold them accountable for their sins--yet.
But you completely side-stepped my question to "you". I'll answer if "for" you. You "have" sinned. In fact, you've sinned "many" times, so you have no right to complain about Adam's sin.

If God isn't holding him accountable, then why the brain tumor?
I did not answer that question because whether I have "sinned" or not is irrelevant to this discussion.

that,"... Jesus Christ obeyed God—thus causing “everyone” Who “believes” in Him to be “born again”, and free from the curse of the law.
Again, through faith in the “Word of God”, and the “Name” of Jesus we can overcome “many” right now, and eventually “all” at a later date, of the effects of the curse that Adam let into the world through his sin/disobedience."
So you have "freedom" from the curse of the law, and you can resist the curse in the Name of Jesus.
Jesus was an immortal super powered being. Why should I be grateful that the guy gave up...one weekend of his life?

This version of God sounds psychotic. One person messed up, therefore EVERYONE has messed up, for all of time.

Ummm...assuming that story were true, i have quite a bit of reason to complain about Adam and Eve's sin. They would be the reason we live like this since we inherently have a sin nature. That would be directly linked to Adam and Eve's sin. Why would you not resent that you are flawed from the start because of someone else's mistakes? Your points make no sense.
