When we say born naturally, we mean from the fall of Man, not as God's will. When everyone after the fall was born, they had the sinful nature within them as part of the fall from the Garden.
So you're saying that because of something two people allegedly did thousands of years ago, the rest of us should be held responsible? Hey, perhaps we should hold the modern youth of Germany responsible for the actions of the Nazis huh?

Did your god not know these things would happen but continued anyway?

If I show you how to drive a car and you drive it in a way inconsistant with what I taught you, can you blame it on me? No.
No, but I can blame you if you KNEW that I wouldn't follow your instructions and come to great harm in not doing so....but allowed me to drive the car anyway. That is a clear case of negligence on your part.

This goes back to the other response above. Some people say that God created evil. This is not true.
It is true. Your own Bible says he did.

Evil is the byproduct of Mankind's misuse of the rules.
...but the rules were made by an omniscient deity that knew they wouldn't be followed and that the result of that would be suffering for all mankind...even those that had nothing to do with the original rule breaking. You consider that fair do you?
What you call scorn is what I call truth...Arequipa is probably one of the least scornful of all the opposition...The problem with you theists is that you do not want the truth, and consider any truth contrary to your beliefs scorn or mockery.
I had some time to read thomas paine the age or reason, he completely dismantles Christianity, great read on why Christianity is a sham
No one man can "dismantle" Christianity, no matter who he is. Not even the Antichrist.
