I literally cannot avoid sinning; so, why...

All competent moral agents, regardless of the contents of their moral systems, try to avoid the things their moral systems prohibit, and feel guilt and shame when they fail.  Even when....especially when their moral system is ridiculous.  When there is no reason for the prohibition, when there is no reason to feel guilt, when there is no need to be ashamed.  It's pathological.

You're trapped in that box yourself, so why ask others to answer the question?  Are you reaching out for other terrible people, lonely wherever you're at, loving evil and wanting to do it?  Are you an incompetent moral agent, assuming...or even hoping...that others are like you?  I've long been of the opinion that this is the working bit of christianity.  It tells folks who know that they're shitty people that there's a way out of the consequences of their own shittiness, even if they won't stop being shitty.
(my bolding)

This is why so many christers are such truly loathsome people. They believe that in their own personal Monopoly game of life, that they have a permanent "Get Out of Jail Free" card to excuse anything they do, as long as they beg their sky-daddy hard enough for forgiveness. It is a sincerely repugnant belief with absolutely no regard for those harmed along the way.
