   > This used to drive me crazy, the distinction here. I think sin is of the   
   spirit while error is of the body. 3rd chakra can make errors, which tend to   
   be funny. 6th chakra can "sin" which is also funny because spirit is always   
   itself pure.   
      
   Again, a miracle would be if cross-posting spam were to end on USENET, but   
   since this is here in this group, I'd like to point out that the only sin is   
   sin itself:  it's an error to think one has made an error:  it's a sin to   
   think one has sinned.   
      
   Here's a perfect confession for you:  "There is no sin I have not committed   
   against God."  << work that out and get back to me.
