  • Does the notion of "sin" not qualify as bigotry?

    • Sin is most commonly defined as "wrong doing". If you think murder is bigotry, I'm not sure what to tell you.

      • As a non-native English-speaker, what i find is:

        Sin

        noun

        1 transgression of divine law: the sin of Adam.

        2 any act regarded as such a transgression, especially a willful or deliberate violation of some religious or moral principle."

        (from https://www.dictionary.com/browse/sin?r=75&src=ref&ch=dic )

        both definition include a notion of religion.

        not talking about murder here. just about the notion of "sin".

        • The key word is moral here.

          One of the ten commandments is do not commit murder.

          Sin certainly has religious elements yes. But every wrong doing is sin. And the big ones are in the ten commandments, which include things like stealing, murder, and cheating on your spouse.

          • then why not wording as "what is the worst wrong doing you've done?" am asking from the standpoint of language (and the one of instance policy), as "sin you've done" sounds to me, at face value, like bigotry (ie. integrating the view of one religion as something universal and/or real)

            • So.. People asking a religious question is bigotry?

              You're ridiculous man.
