This is one aspect. Not bad, as it shows we were "in" Adam when he made that fateful error. But as Romans 7:17-18 shows, something of that rebellious nature is actually in the "baby" too (that will prompt it to murder, steal, lie, etc.): "It is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh."

I kinda like to replace "the pit" in this sort of analogy with a cesspool. Mankind is drowning in unimaginable filth and winds-up ingesting a lot of crap!
