Practically, you could skullfuck a child. If you have the right equipment. Would you is a different question and is being only part of this particular part of the conversation. I agree, if you have free will you have free will. Absolute evil is the space opposite of absolute good in the vernacular. Sin is action opposite of God's will, in the vernacular. Did Christ have free will? Did Christ sin? Could Christ have sinned? Yes. No, Yes.
You can't really get rid of the interpretive structure we use to process. You can't separate the information harvester from the process. You don't have to will to be what you are, but that's a very nascent form of information gatherer without volition. We constantly will ourselves otherwise, intentionally or instinctively, albeit incrementally.
I suppose, conceptually that death signifies the termination of sensory input in the materialist view. No input no choice, no choice no will. If you retain your free will in death then there would have to be a choice and an input to continue the cycle of choosing, learning and growing. I don't know why it would matter if you kept or lost your free will in death, that wasn't my point. My point was the connotation of sin implies that you can sin this side of the afterlife. Snow seems to imply a belief "True Christians" can't sin and I was allowing snow to ellaborate on their concept.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
