These are words that only have a meaning to believers of Christian myths and can only be explained by making the listener believe in other concepts for which there is no tangible evidence like heaven, hell and an afterlife. Is it like when you tell a lie and you have to tell another two lies to cover it up and before you know it, you’re living in a world of lies?

I’m sorry but you don’t have a clue about what you are talking about. Christianity did not invent the terms sin or evil. Please, ast least do some basic research before you troll Christians.
Your “healthy optimism” about God and Christ will take you straight to hell.
I pray God will not allow you to take many with you.
We didnt invent these words. They are already in the bible, if you dont like them, take it up with the Lord Jesus Christ. If you listen, He can help you.
Yep, all 90 million of us in the US got together and invented key words… no sorry I got that wrong, it was the early Apostles who were martyred for their faith…yes while they were being boiled alive, or hung upside down or whatever, they invented words to cover the lies they were willing to die for.
“Sin” was first mentioned in the Hebrew Scriptures in Genesis 4. It is mentioned in 299 verses in the Hebrew Old Testament. “Evil” is mentioned in 499 verses in the same Hebrew scriptures, starting with Genesis 2. Both terms and concepts predate Christianity and the Christian-Greek scriptures.
Why are you singling out Christians in this little tirade? You’ve basically just laid the ground work for 50 well known religions. Just because you don’t feel like you have any tangible evidence doesn’t mean that there isn’t any in the people who believe in Christ. You’ve already made up your mind about the answer to this so called question, so why did you ask it? Yahoo answers isn’t a place to come and call a bunch of people liars, or try and disprove religion.
Why do you feel the need to attack Christians? Are you feeling guilty about something and you are perhaps trying to silence a guilty conscience?
read Bible full of talk of evil and sin Have you read it?
Creating black and white stereotypes and schisms makes it easier to vilify any opposing group or viewpoint, strengthening one’s control over the masses. Fascists celebrate the strategy,
Christians (and Catholics for you ultra-conservative, self-proclaimed Christian deniers of Catholic Christianity) deny it. How much self-righteousness, self-indulgence. and self-congratulation do you need to feel validated?
You are thinking for sure. Are we imperfect? If we are, then there has to be an opposite, Perfect. If in imperfection, we die and we pain, then it makes sense to say that in perfection there is no death nor pain.
Christians try to explain this by using words like good – perfection, evil- imperfection. Whether or what ever heaven, hell or an afterlife are, they do exist as a construct evident in human nature.
Almighty God stated what is evil and sin. Satan and his demon angels defined the meaning of those words. And mankind exercised and proliferated them. Evil and sin are not only doctrinal, they are FACT. Almighty God made those simple concise words that define themselves within ANY & EVERY country, tongue, or creed.
No moral absolutes guarantee that EVIL and SIN have proliferated and expanded and given new meaning to those simple concise words.
If a person does not believe in EVIL and SIN, then it is they that are delusional and intentionally deaf, dumb, and blind.
we Christians are inventing words now? sweet.
these are words of fear,fear moves people.when a books says believe or you go to hell that is putting fear in someone.and when you paint the out come of a sinner as evil and that person is going to hell,he or she is going to think twice about doing that so-call sin.these words are keys that are in a program.it help too produce loyal servants.
Why is the bible the worlds best seller if it is so false?
It wouldn’t make it this far if it is so false.
