Your contention, then, is that if words do not mean what they mean..and if paul and john and jesus are all wrong when they use those words..that don't mean what they mean...then...what, exactly?
What do you need to atone or be atoned for? Good, or bad? As I've already explained, magic book addresses the morality of sin every single time it mentions sin. This is completely inarguable. You would have to write your own magic book to edit it out.
Every time. Sin is not mentioned at all outside the context of what is right, or not right. Sin, in no way shape or form..is ever anything except that which is wrong. All wrong is, in fact, sin. You do nothing but harm your faith when you argue this..and harm..according to magic book..is sin.
That god gives a murderer a mulligan does not mean that murder is not sin. If you want to contend that swearing fealty to your stupid fucking god gets you aqcuitted on charges you rightfully deserve, have at it. That is what christians believe - but that doesn't mean that what you've been aqcuitted for is not a moral issue, or that sin can be separated from morality. More accurately, you think that the christian "sin" concept is a factual view of morality. You're not arguing against morality as relativism or anything of the sort. You are simply arguing that your relative morality is accurate. You're only arguing that you will not hold yourself and will not be held by another to your own moral standard - standards alleged to be those of a god, your god.
No argument was required for that. We all know that you're an asshole already. No one needed to be informed that people like you think this way. Absolutely no one. We already knew that. You're literally everything wrong with christianity by the standard of john, paul, and christ.
