I feel like a sinner. I haven't been feeling the best of intentions recently.

You're human. I know some decent people who do wretched things. It's okay to have ill intentions. Life causes us to feel those emotions. It's okay.

We all sin. We aren't perfect. It's ok.

Well, I'm agnostic and I don't believe in sin, but I've had my good intentions thrown back at me yet again, so a fat lot of good they do me. F*ck it...having them makes you feel good for a few minutes but people don't care. They just take advantage.

All sin.

Good intentions are no guarantee.

Find a copy of Simpson and Sampson [it has been pulled from a lot of libraries probably for being controversial, but CAN be found] and read it.

Bad intentions also guarantee nothing. Aspie or NT, social outcomes are basically random, we cannot predict.

When I do good by accident I accept credit. When I misstep I try to apologize.

ah. this is rather kind of ironic considering my struggles lately...

Well, you're not going to hell and just do whatever you can do get yourself through the day. ;)

We're all sinners anyways, and when weak we're more... "vulnerable" to sin if one would put it that way. I feel the same way, from having to lie to my parents in their faces, and possibly, I'll have to lie to some of the people in my church. Lying through my teeth. I don't feel the holiest about this, but basically the point is: don't worry about the concept of sin. Ask most people and it's subjective anyhow.

Jesus says: "whoever has not sinned, cast the first stone."


I wouldn't suggest for anyone to bash their own head with a stone... though sometimes it actually feels better :idea:

Hey just think of it this way: If jesus died for our sins then we should sin as much as possible so he didnt die for nothing :lol:

Two quotes I find useful from the hermits in the Ehyptian desert:

"When I waste a day I thank God for it."

"It is always possible to make a new beginning".

Jesus called the Sinner who tore his garments and begged for Gods gratiousness as he confessed the miserable sinner he was, as being more righteous than the Pharisee who thanked God for not being a sinner like the aforementioned.
