Now that's funny!
A - maybe you need to refine your position, because this is what I hear.

In order to be saved, you must repent for the sins of your fathers (and mothers, I presume).

You gave a very moving example, now let me give you another one.
Let's say your father was a serial adulterer.
Would you need to find the women, husbands, children of the families who he caused anguish and sorrow to and apologize to them?
Then let's say your great-grandfather was the owner of a mill in New England who employed mainly women and children. Would you need to find all of their relatives and ask their forgiveness.
That is madness.
Which is why the Bible does not ask us to do that.
