re: #131 Talking Point Detective

Is there some official gradation of sins?

Masturbation is a sin.

Contraception is a sin.

Abortion is a sin.

Lusting after your neighbor’s wife is a sin.

Now, I would say that depending on what stage of the pregnancy, an abortion has, perhaps, varying degrees of moral implications - but many Christians don’t make such a distinction and oppose abortion merely because they believe that the bible, as the word of god, says it is a sin.

But they also believe that masturbating is a sin as stated by god him/herself in the bible.

So if playboy magazine has lead to at least 65 million incidents of masturbation, should Hugh Hefner be compared to Mao?

Two thousand years of virgin theologians worked that out for the Catholics—damn near everythng involving sex is a mortal (soul-damning) sin.
