Sinning, as Jesus and the church say, is good. Turn or burn Christians.

Lots of people think that about their beliefs.

Quote:2 Give a couple of examples. I might be able to deal with them. I say might because you are a bright guy. I hope you are not thinking theft or other things I can easily refute.
I'm not thinking of any particular thing when I say sin.  

Quote: 3 What great evil do you see when we cooperate?
The greatest evils are done by cooperation - things like war, for example.  

Quote:"Sin is (supposed to be) the thing that compels us to evil, not the specific evil, or any given circumstance of evil."

Jesus took that further and said to even just think of a sin was a sin. I have done a lot of sinning in my mind. Not nearly as much in reality.

I do not agree with him particularly on this thought sin or thought crime thing. It is handy to mentally "sin" to form proofs of concept.
Sure, we sin in thought with regularity.  We play with the idea of doing the wrong thing far more often than we do the wrong thing.  Sin is the things that compels us to evil.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
