Abstract
ABSTRACT We engage Robin Collins' Historical Idealist model, i.e. that the Fall occurred in history though not as a “one-off” distorting our “spiritual substance”. God aimed to bring humans closer to the Gospel vision while granting sufficient autonomy to cooperate or choose otherwise, which distorted human nature. We survey recent work concerning gene-culture interactions suggesting human culture affected the frequency of certain genes and versions of genes. Thus, human free choices have altered the human genome, making humans more likely to engage in sinful actions. The Fall into sin established a vicious cycle even at the level of genetic traits.
