Are you a sinner? Or putting in differently, are you morally perfert?

How do you consider your moral life? Perfect or imperfect? I don't do bad things all the time, but on and off I slipped. So in that sense I am a sinner. How about you?

I think you put it right. I believe sin means to be imperfect so yeah all the time I sin. There is a degree to being a sinner though and I desire to have a moral life. The only way to do that is to be honest with myself and to keep trying/learning as a work in progress.

Yes, honesty is very much required to be better. I think those who refuse to admit their weak spot may never try to perform better. And that will entail living a stagnant life, instead of a progressive life :-)

I don't really understand what really is the reason why people refuse to admit their errors or moral failures in life, except for the arrogance. And arrogance again is not a good quality. I think it is true we all make moral mistakes in life.

I have a good friend that is like that. They never want to admit they made a mistake or might be wrong. They will even follow a lie but I do notice as you said they will never change certain qualities. I've tried to help but in the end I think I need to accept my friend as they are.

Not only am I a sinner but I sin through my own deliberate fault and weakness

I think it takes courage to admit that, urban. I think many a time, we don't want to admit that we slip again and again. Thanks for being honest :-)

Hi headhunter! Yep you are looking at a certified sinner. Is it something to be proud of? Not really, but we should be humble naive to admit it so.

Yes, we should be willing to admit the fact that we are not perfect morally. It's sad that some people refuse to admit such fact.

I think it's very sane to admit then that one is a sinner. Perhaps those who refuse to admit are not quite being honest or deluded sort of. I think it's just not possible to be morally perfect how much ever one really wants.

We are forever in the shadow of the mistake made by our ancient ancestors Eve and Adam. And for that we will never attain a perfect moral life as you put it. Nevertheless we can strive to be as perfect as possible, but alas that is impossible. I'm not saying I'm trying hard to be morally right all the time because I'm a sinner. Anyhow, i call my acts a sin because i simply think they are wrong and not because another person told me it's wrong. I don't consider anything a sin unless a i think it is so. Nobody's perfect in any way and in anything.

Thank you for sharing your view. I think you are right when you said that I call my act a sin because I simply think they are wrong and not because another person told me it's wrong. I think deep down in our heart we know that.

I am not morally perfect in short I am immoral and I am a sinner. I am not really a bad person but there are circumstances that I have accept. I know I am doing wrong but who isn't. Nobody is perfect out there but as much as possible I do not want to step on anyone's toes. There are things we cannot avoid doing and cannot sacrifice just to please everyone.

Thank you for sharing your viewpoint. What you said makes a lot of sense. There are indeed things we cannot avoid doing and cannot sacrifice just to please everyone.
