Sin is the transgression of the law (the Ten Commandments) - I John 3:4.

Adam and Eve didn't create the original sin... Lucifer (Satan) did.

Jesus once said to a group of Jews who "believed on Him": "...Ye are of your father the Devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, and abode not in the Truth, because there is no Truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and THE FATHER OF IT." (John 8:44)

Satan "fathered"... sired... originated anger, jealousy and murder, lust, disrespect for authority and God... and bearing false witness. These are God's laws of conduct, the breaking of which is "sin" and punishable by death. He "fathered" sin and did it first.

And it was he who introduced it to the first parents. They fell for his sales pitch... and made wrong choices. They chose to obey the Devil above God. They lusted after what was not theirs. They believed him when he told them that they were "immortal souls":

"...Ye shall not surely die..." (Gen.3:4).

Adam and Eve didn't create the original sin. They just obeyed the voice of the wrong god and introduced the sin that was already extant in the world to the human race.
