    This is along the same lines as the hell post and is also a serious question.

    How do you view sin? Especially those of you are are Christians? For example, if I do something that I know is wrong but make the choice to do it anyway is that an "unpardonable sin" (ref. the article in the hell thread)? What determines which sins are forgivable and which are not?

    Just curious about other peoples thoughts on this.

    just assume that you believed that the Bible was the word of God that instructed people on how to live their lives. What, hypothetically, would you think constituted an unforgivable sin and which would you think are forgivable?

    Sin = Human Nature.

    Just a part of who we are.

    On a pesonal level we make personal choices and act accordingly.Thats why we have prisons and therapists and......

    Wouldn't knowing lead us to make different decisions than if we didn't know?

    Sin is what it is, an invention of man designed for control. By extension, the punishment for man invented sin by some is man invented hell.

    Knowing that some people talk about and teach sin would have an effect on individuals if one would invest belief in what they are selling.
