If you mean to say that the effects of the fall have corrupted our natures so that since the fall we "naturally" tend toward a moral depravity, then that would be true.
However, it should also be affirmed that we are ruined before God because of the moral culpability of the imputed guilt of Adam's sin, which would make your final statement incorrect. | original sin is the cause of our moral run that is inherit in all people. Imputed sin is not what ruins us, imputed sin is the guilt or blame that is credited to our account. Imputed sin is outside of us per se'.
