An explicit description of sin as miasma, but it doesn't answer any question posed to you in the quoted text.
We can posit that immoral actions have no necessary consequence, or conversely that leading an ethically blameless life does nothing to change the fact that a person is mired in sin...but this only serves to highlight the question that was asked in even greater detail.
If an act being unrighteous does not make that act sinful, and if a sinful act has no relationship to outcomes...then what is the case against murder, or for a day off of work? It can't possibly take ten pages to explain that. Time to shit or get off the pot.
