Are the words "Sin" and "Hell" a trigger to you Atheists?

RE: Are the words "Sin" and "Hell" a trigger to you Atheists?
You can say it. Im the member being referred to here.

Though i wish the context of which I said that in had been posted, as I feel as though the way it is being presented here is a bit of a misrepresentation.

Anyhow, sorry if it was condecending and insulting to anyone. It was not my intention.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
