I know what sin is, Phat. I wanted to know why I should ask others about myself?

How do you know what sin is?

The dictionary and biblical accounts.

And just what makes those peoples definitions of sin compelling?

That seems obviously tongue-in-cheek. I'm wondering why several people are responding as if this were a serious complaint. Edited by nwr, : fix typo Let's end the political smears

Your definition is the most sensible I have ever heard. I wonder if people just don't want to know and would rather keep comparing the 'goodies' and the 'baddies'?

Aren't you mistaking humour for arrogance and it has nothing to do with free will?

pelican Member (Idle past 5008 days) Posts: 781 From: australia Joined: |
I'm not sure what your point is? Do I find the definitons compelling?
In what way? Do I agree with the defintions? Or am I compelled to commit sin? Just cut to the chase and say what's on your mind. I'm intriqued!

Thank the lord. Someone else with a WICKED sense of humour. Is that a sin? Is that why the others don't find it funny? I've not stopped laughing. Oh no, is that being arrogant? I'll surely go to hell.

So many of the posts here are deadly serious, that they probably didn't notice the intended humor.

I just find it surprising that my comment would be taken seriously under any circumstances. I don't actually believe in sin as defined but I do have a rebellious nature and it shows.

If all people sin, and you get your definitions from people {via the dictionary and the bible} what does that say about the quality of the information on which you base you determination of what is sinful?

I don't agree with the definitions and I think neither do you. personally, I define sin as a suppressive ideal.
