| | Sinning, suffering, and wanting are intimately intertwined.
Why do we sin?
For example, lions: they suffer from hunger, and they want meat. Therefore they kill; they sin.
What about humans? We covet more things than lions do- (kill for)food, (destroy for)shelter, (rob for)water... yet those are only necessities. We (lust for) wo/men, (cheat for) money, (lie for) reputation...
Then how much have we sinned?
My waist is firmly girded by a rope, and a monster called Time holds the other end, slowly, steadily, but surely drawing me closer to the edge of a cliff: Death.
