Your words are beautiful, but as someone who was raised in a very religious household, I have to question your doctrinal interpretation. Everyone sins, yes, but as a sincere Christian, aren't you supposed to learn from your missteps and sins, and avoid them moving forward? There is literally nothing in the Bible that suggests or advocates that freely sinning in one capacity (e.g. having lots of sex) is acceptable just because you repent of it afterward. Or that it's okay because supposedly "all sins are equal" and "everyone sins".

When people claim that all sin is equal, the underlying scriptural meaning is that any sin distances you from God and can lead to spiritual death, so in that sense they are equal in effect. But there are different levels of sin, too. Blaspheming against the Holy Spirit is considered the gravest. Sexual immorality is up there, as well. Extramarital sex -- or fornication in the Bible -- is expressly considered one of the more serious sins. In Catholicism, it is considered a mortal sin, while other lesser sins may be considered "venial". In Protestantism, extramarital sex is also considered a grave sin, and if committed with full knowledge, willingly going against the Word, then it demonstrates a deliberate separation from God.

What you are effectively doing is excusing and rationalizing your sin, viewing it as "acceptable" or at least "not that bad", and then happily going about your life while acting in a way that is antithetical to your stated belief system. I almost cannot believe what I'm reading. Seriously. The Bible even says that true repentance involves the resolution not to engage in that sinful behavior anymore. You, on the other hand, are not at all resolving to avoid the sin -- in fact, you specifically resolve to keep doing it! I don't understand that mindset, in the light of a stated Christian belief.

You can spin your own interpretation of Christianity to "allow" for what you're doing, but you must realize there is no scriptural basis for it. None. In fact, the Bible condemns those who deliberately sin and then come to be forgiven later, and keep purposely doing this in a cycle, without TRUE repentance.

I'm not a Christian, and your choices don't affect me, and it doesn't ultimately make a difference to me how you want to live your life, but the twisting of the religion to suit your ends is incredible to me. It's like doublethink! The whole point of Christianity is to become closer to God and strive to lead a godly life according to the teachings of Christ. That includes avoiding sin to the best of your ability, and having true repentance when you fall.

Not "I'll do this because I want to, even though it's clearly a sin, and since I've talked myself into believing it's not that bad (despite it being described in the Bible as a grave sin which is to be avoided at all costs), I feel okay about doing it, and thus I'm able to go to church feeling okay about my actions that contradict the edicts of my religion... and that's all that matters."

I don't want to get into a theological debate, but please. Think about what you're saying, and how it relates to the Bible and Christianity. It's just so... irreconcilable with the teachings of your religion.

Or, if you're one of the Christians who takes the surface teachings of the religion and dismisses the parts that are difficult or disagreeable to you, more power to you, I suppose. I would consider that to be more "spiritual" than religious or Christian-like, but it does seem to be pretty common nowadays among self-professed Christians.
