While it's fun to talk about words.....it seems rather pointless.
It doesn't matter where the word came from, or that people who didn't speak english.....because english was not even a language yet ......didn't use an english word to describe the concept of taboo or spiritual uncleanliness.
Sins, by any name and in any language, are those things that damage ones soul or ones relationship to the divine. Those things x which, commonly, are thought to incur a retributive punishment by an entity (or by fate)...if they are not somehow cleansed or accounted for. They may correlate to what we consider "wrong"...they may not..but it isn;t on account of their wrongness or the normative effect of religious belief that they are sinful. Nor does it have anything to do with which hand they sign their name with.
Your credibility on this, Hai..is fucking -shot-. You are silly, your comments are meaningless. It is completely unfathomable to accept that a person who has so much as a perfunctory understanding of the concept in general..or of it's place and specific manifestation in judeo-christian mythology could have ever brought themselves to say anything you just posted, even as a joke.
