LOL. I voted "yes." Then I looked at the others who voted "yes" as well. I bet we all did it for about the same reason.

Why? What do you mean? Why did you vote "yes?"

Cause we like being disagreeable? jk.

Actually the other yes voter wants his vote changed to no. So it seems it's just me and you pel

So, do we need to (mentally) move your vote to "No"? (Maybe an admin can do that for real.)

hmm... we're talking long odds then and not so much human nature. I'm rather generous in my definitions, and "original sin" gets a pretty wide latitude. We may not even be in disagreement, but I think there's only one possible "Jesus."

That provokes a question. Could there be such a thing as english tongues? A bunch of english words strung together that has no meaning in english but might have meaning to God?
Most would say my posts are like this.

Re: Is a 100% sinless life possible?

I was thinking about the question presented on this thread and I think it depends on how we define "sin".

For example, some would say that due to the internets vile contents and some banner adds on just news websites a Christian is in sin by merely having access to it in the home. I was on CNN website and saw a very nice Victoria's secret add... and forgive me, I'm a healthy man, and it appealed to me. Some would say I sinned by looking at it.

So I think "sin" needs to be defined. Once sin is defined we can determine if we can live a sinless life.

By the way, personally, I think we can.

I believe that sin is defined as anything outside of the realm of God's perfection.
