Original Sin doesn’t mean that’s the original state in which everything was made, it means that Adam’s sin is the root of our own sin and death today. In fact part of what makes Original Sin such a powerful evil is percisly because the “default” or natural state of creation was grace and perfection.I got the idea from the whole ‘Original Sin’ concept. I got it from the teaching that in my natural state, without seeking and asking God’s forgiveness, without accepting Jesus’ sacrifice for my sins, and without taking any proactive actions in this regard, the default value is eternal damnation of my soul.
Adam did not have a fallen nature at creation like we did, rather like Mary (more directly like Christ though Christ is God and not created) Adam was created in a state of grace. He did not have a natural tendancy to sin like we do, rather he chose Satan over God completely of his own free will. Thus all of man kind, which decends from Adam and Eve, suffers the effects of the fall.
