To grip_daddy,
It is with a great regret that you have quoted a passage from Ellen Whites book as your proof for the Doctrine of Original Sin, putting aside the book which you are claim that it is from the Almighty God. Sadly, this gives picture that you are disatissified with the Bible!
However, the Doctrine of Atonement, was accepted by the Church three or four centuries after Jesus left the earth. It contradicts the Bible, as the following passages show: Deuteronomy 24:16: "The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin."
Jeremiah 31:30: "But every one shall die for his own iniquity ..."
Ezekiel 18:20: "The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him."
