The non-physical energy that is consciousness awareness, that is what we are, actually traces all of the the neural pathways in the brain during the merging process. "Born with" nah it is much more than that. Add in the fact that the memories or "self awareness" of our true self and nature are blocked during this process in order to help facilitate identifying with the body and it's mind or ego as self shows there is a heck of a lot more going on than we will ever understand. But then we don't have to as that is not our task.

If you think that being ' Born with Sin ' makes sense, is that not a belief in ' Original Sin ' ?

That's a question for the Christianity section of forums. Can you reword it so it relates to Buddhism or Buddha somehow? If you can weave in the teachings of Gautama Siddhartha or Buddhism into the question it can be discussed here.

Yes of course...

You believe in Karma so how does it fit into your belief that being ' born with sin ' makes sense ?

are you willing to answer a simple question to find the answer to this question you have wholly created?

I haven't created the question, you said you have ' Terrible Karma ' so I was curious as how being ' Born with sin ' makes sense to you and how it fits in with Karma...

It's obvious you don't want to or can't answer and that's fine
I once had a conversation with a Roman Catholic Priest in our Buddhist Sangha about this and He immediately answered, not to worry, I was just curious it's far from being important....

We are not born with sin.
We are perfect and divine. Always and forever.
We can sin though like when we judge others.
When we speak harshly or negatively about others.
When we don't love others as ourselves.
According to Buddhism, ignorance is the cause.
Of not knowing our Buddha or true nature.

well yes the question is like:

"You believe dogs are horrible and you have a dog so how do you fit these together?"

i don't believe dogs are horrible i love dogs very much so how could i answer?

the question is messed up!
