OT First of all, get your definition of Sin right. Sin is a relation; it is an occasion that prompts the human learner to recall that he is in Error and that by virtue of his own guilt. Now, my own Error is something that I can discover only by myself, since it is only when I have discovered it that it is discovered, even if the whole world knew of it before. The difference between Humanism and Christianity ultimately boils down to this: In Humanism, every human being is in possession of the Truth and the Truth comes to light through that person. In Christianity, a person is destitute of the Truth up to the very moment of learning it from the Teacher ( Christ). I don't mind going on record here by saying that I have a tremendous amount of respect for Christianity as a viable alternative even though I am a practicing Humanist. Some Christians, like Haim, should do less preaching and learn the Humanistic philosophy, as I have done with Christianity. For the truth of the matter is that we don't know which Religion is right. That is why I advocate Tolerance. If the Truth lies within each and every human being and can be accessed through the human, then Sin is Dead. PS I don't wish to debate you further here on this thread. It is way off topic and irrelevant to the movement of the financial markets. Unless, of course, you would like to set forth an argument that a Millennium Crash has its roots in Christian Philosophy. Then I will respond.
