Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0105`; `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0129` - The first crime of disobedience against God, which Jesus is said to redeem through sacrifice. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-eggfqdv-rpc@transcript:v1#seg-0028` - The Fall understood here as humanity's attempt to become God, so severe that neither simple pardon nor human payment can repair it. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-v6cdqjnrvlk@transcript:v1#seg-0050`; `video:predictive-history-v6cdqjnrvlk@transcript:v1#seg-0052` - In Jiang's reading, Augustine intensifies Paul's model from a mistaken disobedience redeemed by Jesus into the claim that humans are born sinners and remain sinners unless taught obedience. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-gdbzbvuivde@transcript:v1#seg-0014`; `video:predictive-history-gdbzbvuivde@transcript:v1#seg-0015` - diagnosis: Paul's definition of love is interpreted as a rhetorical conversion of affection into endurance, submission, and obedience. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0105` - model: Jiang says original sin makes people slaves of the devil, while Jesus' loving mastery makes them slaves to Jesus. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0108` - diagnosis: The church then forbids questioning authority by naming disobedience evil. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0112` - diagnosis: Jiang says Augustine reverses Jesus by saying the inner spark is not divine but satanic pride. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0129` - model: The doctrine of original sin teaches that humans are born evil and redeemed only through Christ and church authority. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0132` - diagnosis: Student questions clarify that pride is permitted only if the Pope or church authority defines it as obedience to God. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-6xgac-oqcbu@transcript:v1#seg-0136` - evidence: Jesus is presented as reasserting Mosaic law, freeing humanity from original sin through self-sacrifice, and creating a universal covenant open beyond Israelite identity. Source refs: `video:predictive-history-eggfqdv-rpc@transcript:v1#seg-0028`, `video:predictive-history-eggfqdv-rpc@transcript:v1#seg-0029` - model: The show-trial confessions are explained through revolutionary original sin: old Bolsheviks had sacrificed everything for the revolution, so they could accept self-sacrifice to cleanse and preserve it.
