In the Bible it says that the sins of our fathers will be passed from generation to generation. Does that mean that my children will suffer because of my father's sins?

Well, if we are all children of god then what are you worried about.....

Sins are a concept that keeps people within moral boundaries. Sins are not genetic nor are they real; However, the things you do today will affect your children tomorrow. Simply be a good friend and father and I think you will do fine.

I am not worried just wondering. If the Bible is the word of God and it is in fact true then our sins are passed down. And I will continue to be a good mother

I need "to" point out, that you shouldv'e used "two" O's instead of one. Like, oh Mr.Mclister, you're "too" silly..The kind of "to" you used, is used like, Oh, Mr.Mclister, go "to" hell..

McClister ... the term "sins" as used in the Bible refers to essentially the same things as do the modern terms, "genetic propensity" and "behavioral anamoly."

When you say that sins are not real do you mean that law breaking is just a conceptual idea ?
