Why would an all-wise god punish me for what Adam did 7,000 years ago? What fairness is there in that?

OK, what about for those who died before Christ came along? And those who have never heard of Christ? And those who die as kids? And those who are born dead? Or those born without the ability to conceptualize and know Christ?

Salvation is NOT free. Oxygen is free, you just breath and its there, you don't have to do anything, just breath. There are tons of crap you have to do in order to get salvation. You have to give up a heck of a lot of stuff to get salvation.
