| | Sin is defined here as a refusal to obey the laws of god as handed down by and interpreted by men. | | | The Greek word for sin is hamartia, meaning a failure or a fault, especially a fault of judgment. | | | According to the Liddell and Scott Greek-English Lexicon, it is in Plato and Aristotle that fault turns into a religious sense of guilt. |

| | This particular sin supports the great Baha'i philosophy that religion is the great educator of humanity, and that God has done us the greatest good by perpetuating revelation to us. | | | Further — the first class of sin can be escalated into the second class if they are flagrantly and publicly carried out — because this act discredits the Faith of God — thereby hindering others who might be otherwise attracted to the Faith, and in some ways, dimming the light of the Faith. | | | "This is a sin unpardonable, for they have made that poor babe a wanderer in the Sahara of ignorance, unfortunate and tormented: to remain during a lifetime a captive of ignorance and pride, negligent and without discernment. |

| | Although their 'meaning' may range from potency to sin, and may be ambiguous or downright obscure, phallic symbols are universal, and they survive universally, whether or not they are consciously seen as phallic. | | | There are large numbers of male and female exhibitionists (some depicted as committing their sin, others as suffering for their sin, some also committing other sins such as Drunkenness of Wealth (Avaritia)) on Romanesque corbels and capitals, especially in France. | | | It is not surprising, therefore, that coital and phallic carvings, masquerading as Sin, should survive among the Romanesque and medieval ruins of Ireland. |
