Do you believe in, or that there is "Sin"...? "Evil"...?

[Strathos]

Do you believe in, or that there is "Sin"...?

If not, and I would like the ones that don't, answer this one...? Do you believe in or that there is (a such thing as) "Evil" or that evil exists...?

Why, or why not?

God Bless!

Yes to both.

If they didn't exist, there would be perfect peace and harmony on earth, and no crime, war, oppression, etc.

Just use the biblical term Kohen. It will save a lot of us going round and round with this issue.

Somebody in another thread mentioned, "
I'm just noting that the NT mentions Jewish priests, which is neither the priesthood of all believers nor Christ's priesthood."

Does that mean that using the term priest today is still improper?

I believe people do good things and bad and everyone is capable of both. For the people who do horribly bad things, it is motivated by their personal psychology, which is formed by their life experiences and likely genetics.

Not necessarily improper; but ambiguous.
