It's been a while since I picked up a bible, but I seem to remember someone asking Paul (or Jesus or whatever) if all sins were equal. I don't remember the answer.

Besides, Christianity seems to have taken hold precicely becuase sins can be forgiven---over and over and over and over again...so what's the biggie the XTians make of this all? --- Sent from UnionMail Service [http://mail.union.org.za]
