Proud of my Sins

We are all sinners...No ?

This idea of Sin disturbs me, because not only does the word "Sin" mean to represent the true evils of human nature (such as murder, rape, discimrinationm etc,) but the word also means to define actions that in no way harm people (shaving your beard, homosexuality, pre-marital sex, not going to Church, masturbation, being of another religion, etc.)

The idea of Sin is really a means of restriction, or atleast has been used in that context...as if everything we do is in SOME way a sin....

This word is over used, and is getting annoying, because Human Beings have always been flawed, are still flawed now, and will always be flawed.

The true sins are hatred, murder, control, and torment....true "sins" or true evils are those done which truly cause a person great pain or loss.

Killing in the Name of God is always a sin, and can never be accepted as any sort of moral right. The same goes for Hating in the name of God and Discriminating in the name of God.....

Is God is Love, then he cannot hate. Period...neither should you...

Anyways, my "flaws" have been considered sins by a great many, and i am sure so have yours. So if you are proud of your flaws, be HEARD !

As long as you are not aiming to hurt another person, then be PROUD OF YOUR SINS ! droolio

Come on ! People of all types and backgrounds !

🙂 😮 😛 😕 😆 😎 😱 😄

While I am not proud of my actual mishaps/sins, I have fully embraced the fact that I am a sinner, and I'm going to fail periodically.

Sin was just a term created as a means of controlling people hundreds of years ago .... as were most religions

No. Sin is a Christian concept that is used to control people.

Pretty much. This is evident in the fact that for the longest time only clergies and other higher ups were actually allowed to "read" bibles or at all for that matter. For the most part it still feels the same today (I'm speaking from my personal encounters) only with the fact that although people can read it a lot of people who are full dead on religious don't really read the bible but have it read and preached to them.😬

Hmmm, interesting thread. I shall ponder this a bit LU.

I can't say I am proud of my sins but I am sure I can find something to contribute to this wonderful thread! I shall get back to you. I must think! 😗

If you noticed, i tried to segregate Sin into two categories:

1) Actual Evil

2) Our human flaws...

I am not encouraging people to be proud of anything they have done to hurt another person....what I am trying to do is get people do admit that they are human, and have made mistakes, and WILL ALWAYS make mistakes...

It is unfair to call every sincere human aspect a "sin"

I appreciate your patience and interest in my topics, because I know you are a Christian...please note, i do not mean to seriously offend, only challenge.

And also note that I am not Anti-Christian by any means, i am pro-questioning authority of ANY KIND....

The person I admire more than ANYONE in this world, happens to be Christian as well...i bet you can't guess Who i am talkn about...

Mother Teresa

What a fkn wondorful woman.....i beleive she is the true model for which any one should take....to come from nothing, and help people with everything you have...

She judges no one, preached nothing but love, only aimed to give people the means to live a happy and healthy life...

There was no exchange, she did not tell people they had to convert, nothing....she just gave and gave....

There is only one sin in my religion and that is slander of the Law. So, that is why I asked you.
