Sin: Encyclopedia II - Sin - Christian views of sin
Sin - In General. In Western Christianity, sin is often viewed as a legal infraction or contract violation, and so salvation tends to be viewed in legal terms. In Eastern Christianity, sin is more often viewed in terms of its effects on relationships, both among people and between people and God. The Greek word in the New Testament that is translated in English as "sin" is hamartia, which literally means missing the target. Consequently, salvation is viewed more in terms of reconciliation and vastly ...

Sin: Encyclopedia II - Sin - Muslim views of sin

Islam sees sin (dhanb ذنب) as anything that goes against the will of Allah. Muslims believe that God is angered by sin and punishes some sinners with the fires of Hell (jahannam), but that He is also the Merciful (ar-rahman) and the Forgiving (al-ghaffar), and forgives those who repent and serve Him: Say: "O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah forgives all sins: for He is Oft-Forg ...

Sin: Encyclopedia - Venial sin

According to Catholicism, a venial sin is a sin which meets at least one of the following critera: it does not concern a "grave matter", it is not committed with full knowledge, or it is not committed with both deliberate and complete consent. Such a sin involves a "temporary loss of grace" from God. As the above critera are the three criteria for mortal sin stated negatively (via de Morgan's theorem), a sin which met none of these extenuating c ...

Sin: Encyclopedia - Mortal sin

According to the beliefs of Catholicism, a mortal sin, as distinct from a venial sin, must meet all of the following conditions: its subject must be ‘grave matter’; it must be committed with full knowledge, both of the sin and of the gravity of the offense; it must be committed with deliberate and complete consent. Sin is defined by St. Augustine (Contra Faustum, XXII, xxvii) as something said, done or desired contrary to the eternal law. Mortal sin specifically is further defined, as s ...

Sin: Regret Your Sins

Muslim Quotes: Regret Your Sins

 

True repentance entails constant regret of your sins. Without remorse, good deeds, be they abounding, could be eclipsed by pride that follows piety. Remorse for a sin is superior to good works. Never forget your transgressions to save yourself from conceit.

Sin: Encyclopedia - Wilderness of Sin

In the Bible the Wilderness of Sin is an area lying between Elim and Sinai. It is mentioned in Exodus 16:1; and Numbers 33:11, 12). It was probably the narrow plain of el-Markha, which stretches along the eastern shore of the Red Sea for several miles toward the promontory of Ras Mohammed, the southern extremity of the Sinitic Peninsula. While the Israelites rested here for some days they began to murmur on account of the want of nourishment, as they had by this time consumed all the corn they had brought with them out of Egypt. God heard their murmuri ...

Sin: Encyclopedia - Eternal sin

The eternal sin (often called the "unforgivable sin" or "unpardonable sin") is a concept of sin in Christian theology, wherby salvation or eternal life with God becomes impossible. Its origin comes from statements by Jesus in the context of his opponents' claim that his miraculous healings were a work of Beelzebub: “Truly I say unto you, All their sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter: but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is gu ...

Sin: Hindu - Hinduism Dictionary on Sin

sin: Intentional transgression of divine law. Akin to the Latin sons, "guilty."

 

Hinduism does not view sin as a crime against God, but as an act against dharma - moral order - and one's own self. It is thought natural, if unfortunate, that young souls act wrongly, for they are living in nescience, avidya, the darkness of ignorance.

 

Sin is an adharmic course of action which automatically brings negative consequences. The term sin carries a double meaning, as do its Sanskrit equivalents:

1)    a wrongful act,

2)    the negative consequences resulting from a wrongful act.

 

In Sanskrit the wrongful act is known by several terms, including pataka (from pat, "to fall") papa, enas, kilbisha, adharma, anrita and rina (transgress, in the sense of omission).

 

The residue of sin is called papa, sometimes conceived of as a sticky, astral substance which can be dissolved through penance (prayashchitta), austerity (tapas) and good deeds (sukritya). This astral substance can be psychically seen within the inner, subconscious aura of the individual. Note that papa is also accrued through unknowing or unintentional transgressions of dharma, as in the term aparadha (offense, fault, mistake).

 

inherent sin or original sin: A doctrine of Semitic faiths whereby each soul is born in sin as a result of Adam's disobedience in the Garden of Eden. Sometimes mistakenly compared to the Saiva Siddhanta concept of the three malas, especially anava.

See: pasha.

 

mortal sin: According to some theologies, sins so grave that they can never be expiated and which cause the soul to be condemned to suffer eternally in hell. In Hinduism, there are no such concepts as inherent sin or mortal sin.

See: aura, evil, karma, papa.

Sin: Encyclopedia - Apostolic Pardon

In the Roman Catholic Church, the Apostolic Pardon is an indulgence given for the remission of sins.

Sin: Encyclopedia II - SiN - Background

Set in the near future of 2037, many of the levels and locations are reminiscent of their current day equivalents. Banks, building sites, sewage works and other everyday recognisable buildings form the basis of many of the levels in SiN. One major difference in the world of SiN is the lack of a police force. 10 years prior to the game, it is revealed that the police force collapsed due to inefficiency and ineffectiveness against the rising tide of crime. Private security companies have taken their place, some patrolling the streets like the former police, some in charge of p ...

Sin: Encyclopedia II - SiN - Features

Body Specific Hitzones - SiN was one of the first shoot-em-ups to have a body specific hitzone. A headshot would do more damage than a body shot, which would in turn do more damage than a leg shot. It also featured player skins which would deform in accordance the area hit, showing where an enemy had sustained damage. Action-based Outcomes - A player's progression through SiN was not entirely linear. Many levels had multiple ways in which to complete it, and actions could trigger drastic changes in future levels.
