And so, to be clear on what you mean here:
By “orthodox” you do not mean “orthodoxy”, but rather you mean texts from Eastern Orthodox traditions?
The Eastern Orthodox communions do accept the inheritance of death … by means
of inheriting the nature to inevitable transgress God’s law.
They are quite clear on this matter. But the transgressions are those made by each individual,
inheriting Adam’s fate … but not inheriting Adam’s unique sins, which are his alone.
When you comment on the Eastern Orthodox enthusiasm for contradicting Augustine,
you cannot simply waive off their reasoning for why they reject his position. They are
most earnest on the matter … and actively proclaim a theology that supports their
rejection.
You may not agree with their theology… but that’s okay, because I do not agree with
Augustine’s theology.
