No personal offence intended, but sometimes the "right" and the "good" are anything but nice. Ron is generally correct in his injunction here. There's nothing emotional here at all, at least not in Ron's comments.

If we are going to get really stuck on "Sola Scriptura" (which is not a bad thing) I'd appreciate some solid Scriptural proof for these claims.

I would encourage you to go read Romans 5:12 on, especially vs. 15-19. Paul clearly states that sin entered the world through an act of Adam- not his "pre-programmed" nature, but an act.
