minus-square@A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•1 month agoMine, I just gave it to you. Got a better one?
minus-square@CyberEgg@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilink2•1 month ago“Sin” is heavily religiously connotated. Any definition that does not include that context misses an important part.
minus-square@A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•1 month agoOkay, incorporate that into a definition without showing favoritism to any one religion. The central idea behind sin in all religions is what I said - acting against your own interest, i.e., what God wants for you
