If you could rid the world...

Her response was "sin."

So we have an idiot brain wanting to remove a fictitious thing from a real world. This is why there's no progress in the world.

"Sin" is a bullshit superstitious word. If one wants to argue the world would be better if there was less violence and meanness in the world, I'd go for that. But the fact that humans will always do good, and always do bad, does not justify chalking either up to bullshit superstition.

God and Satan don't explain shit anymore than Darth Vader and Yoda do.

"Sin is a bullshit superstitious word" = lies that people tell themselves because to admit the same would be to admit that there is in fact an Almighty GOD in Whose image we were created and to Whom we must all answer.  

This "Hakuna Matata" like position is folly because if there is a problem (and there is if we are honest with ourselves) - it is wise to seek a solution, rather than summarily dismiss the whole thing because it is ostensibly easier to do. When one has, say, a medical emergency or condition one seeks someone/those medical professionals who can help one fix it.  Merely denying the problem is not helpful, but hurtful; to self. 

“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." - Matthew 7:13-14

You know that sin is no laughing matter and down right serious when GOD incarnate - the Lord JESUS, The Word (John 1:1-14) -  substitutionally bore the required cost of it (death beyond the death of the body) - to save many; according to His will and purpose.  

These are truly matters of life and death and nothing to scoff at.
