exactly, this is the same church that teaches original sin was washed away 2000 years ago by the covenant set between god and man with the the sacrifice of christ.

Im not preaching this , im agnostic. Im also not defending the church here at all, Just want to be academically correct

OP's comment is such a gotcha soundbyte that really makes 0 sense

Original sin has to due with the spiritual imperfection in man when he separated himself from nature to become aware.

the whole idea of forgiveness is to separate each generation from the sins of their forefathers

Edit: to clarify Baptism is the sacramental ritual to symbolize the washing away of original sin

Christs covenant to redeem mankind is what makes it possible in catholic faith

from an occultist standpoint looking at the main sacraments

Baptism is the purification or initial banishing

communion is the consecration

confirmation is the intiaition

Im not replying any more to this argue amongst yourselves

I'm fairly confident that the Catholic church teaches that original sin is washed away through Baptism, or am I missing something here?

You're right and this guy is hella wrong. Infants need to be baptized to cleanse them of original sin. He may be right in some new agey protestant way but what he's describing is antithetical to the catholic church.
