    Sin is also reportedly the cause of Hindus dying from starvation, isn't that right dj2becker?

    It probably caused my Grandmother's back pain, too.

    And it will probably send me to hell to suffer for all eternity.

    So what's a little blindness then?

    Spiritual blindness prevents a person from seeing the Truth.

    I agree, if you're referring to someone who is blind due to their spirituality.

    But do you think that sin can be a cause?

    Sin can be the cause of lots of things. Including, but not limited to, the misrepresentation of Christian theology. In the mean time why not relax in the knowledge that God will deal with all the sin when and if he sees fit...in other words, you need not worry about it.

    My suggestion is you take care of your own house and leave the sin extermination to those qualified to do it, which is to say God...and Priests if you are Catholic.

    You're wrong. It's the proliferation of narrow-minded zealotry masquerading as organized religion.

    There must be a name for the literary device you employ when starting a thread. There is always some broad but vaguely interesting title. This is always followed with the most disappointing OP possible.

    Edit: And some fool always rec's it!

    . . . or the deterioration of your spiritual visual cortex as in the case of T.S.

    Do you think that God can deal with sin if it is not confessed?

    Sin also causes this. Organised religion does not save anybody from sin. It is only once you see the truth of God.

    Of course not. Only an omnipotent being could do that. 🙂

    Blindness how?

    You are saying that once one sins they can no longer see?

    You are saying that sins stops one from seeing the wrong they do?

    You are saying that sins does not stop any of the above but does
    stop something else?

    What are you saying?
