The fall of man still happened because Eve sinned first. We all inherit original sin and die because of her.

If it was genetically/spiritually passed on wouldn’t that make baptism obsolete? Just asking for clarification!

Or would the genetic part be our desire to continue to do our own will not God’s?

Water baptism erases the guilt of original sin and regenerates the soul for the other requirements for salvation: Faith and works in Jesus Christ at the age of reason; and, essentially, Faith in, and practice of, what's contained in the Athanasian Creed.

I understand what baptism is. I am a baptized Catholic, Quid. I mean if it’s not part of us genetically, what would the purpose of baptism be? You can’t wash away genetics.

You obviously don't understand baptism, for if you did, you wouldn't ask the question in the first place, and then follow it up with another spin.

The question is answered, but you refuse to hear it. The dense cranium of a modern woman.
