if you draw a line in the sand, and you tell yourself not to cross it, but then you go ahead and cross it, there's nothing to take away the truth that you crossed the fking line!

same thing goes with anything else. If you do something your religion says your prohibited from doing, no matter how much you confess or you pray, there's nothing that is going to erase the truth that you broke the rules.

If I "sin" I know what I've done, and I dont look at it in context to how my religion would judge me. Rather, i take the time to see what my actions say about ME the person, independent of my religion.
