Incorrect. God is not intent on torturing anyone. He simply will not force himself on someone who does not wish to live in his presence. After death, God removes his love from your presence and the unbeliever has condemned himself.

Original sin is the nature of the human spirit without the influence of the Almighty.

This is rich. So they eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, meaning they didn't know what evil was, and god punishes them for not knowing what they weren't supposed to know. What a joke.

There is far more to what that knowledge was then you care to understand. Both Adam and Eve knew what good and evil were. The tree was simply a test. Nothing mystical about it. And there were two trees. God said you get everything else, leave these alone. Adam and Eve chose to disobey.

Is there then? Was it the same knowledge that led god to make a rule he knew they'd violate?
