Todays Protestants are
not responsible for the sins of their Great Grandfathers and Grandfathers. I dont see where it is even Biblical to take on the yoke of sin for people long since deceased. People who are alive now is another matter.
Its like slavery. Yes it was very wrong. Yes, we have learned from the past mistakes of our forefathers and yes we realize that we humans still have an inner nature that if left unchecked can be very ugly. We are responsible for ourselves but not for life and circumstance before our birth.
