- sure, maybe, but it wouldnt be Sin as we consider sin to be. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 14:00 4

    - no, what i am saying is that Sin as we know it is linked to the religious material that conceptualized it. - tRuMaN Mar 11, 14:11
  - sure, there would be no religious connotation without religion, but there would still be good / bad. -- nm - Andie Mar 11, 14:01 1
    - sure there would be. but it wouldnt be the same as Sin as we have it. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 11, 14:03
