For some reason earlier today I looked up a giant list of all sins and I’ve made a few conclusions.

1: Lust is overrated. It’s too broad of a concept and there are significantly more specific sins that can be committed.

For example, lusting after a woman is bad… Homosexuality (depending on the translation technically) is also bad… So what’s left? Loving yourself? No! Also bad! All of these are sins and personally I think all 3 are epic and should be done way more often.

2: stealing and theft are listed as different sins… ??

3: being drunk and throwing parties that involve alcohol are both sins. Personally I don’t drink so this doesn’t affect me in the slightest… But the most hardcore jebus people I’ve ever met have had a beer in their hands and party whenever a ball is being thrown.

4: did you know that it’s actually illegal to swear an oath? Meaning that if you don’t want to sin… It’s impossible to swear into office or give a court testimony… Kinda fucked up for “gods given government” or whatever the fuck

5: honestly I’m just a big fan of “effeminacy” and I should buy another skirt tbh. Need more effeminate men/mascs in my life.

6: I’m not sure if this message counts as “idle words” “vain Jangling” or “jesting” more but I wouldn’t mind being able to knock out 3 sins at once.

    that’s really interesting. Apparently I’m going to hell for joining the cub scouts (boy/girl scouts for people under 13 iirc) 😔

      I’m curious if “pledging allegiance” would also count. In which case, everyone in the US who had to pledge allegiance to the flag in school is fucked!

        oh that’s amazing. I’m gonna use that on some people I know the next time they pipe up about me wanting a small frog tattoo. Thanks!
