Your argument is flawed. It's flawed because you ignore the key points of what is in fact written, that 'sin entered the world because of one man,' only to impose your own interpretation.

You do that because you know that taken literally, the story doesn't make sense, yet you want to salvage whatever appeals to you, so you deem this to be metaphor, and that to be literal. Cherry picking.
I've already refuted the above sophistry.


Only in your imagination. The narrative specifies that sin entered the world through one man, the disobedience of Adam. Deny that all you like, but there it is for all to see and read.


"Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men.....'' Romans 5:1
