Sin: transgressing God's commandments engraved in the conscience/soul of every human being at conception.
Atheists and agnostics would start to find answers in peer-reviewed Near Death Experiences. Consciousness, intelligence, will, are all spiritual properties of the spiritual immortal soul. How do we know that? some of the blind from birth see in colors for the first time when they are brain dead (no electricity, no activity, no bloodflow, no oxygen) and also no heartbeat and no breathing. The same happens with some of the deaf: they listen for the first time to conversations around or if they go up, even celestial music!
“there are characteristic features that are commonly observed in NDEs. These characteristics include a perception of seeing and hearing apart from the physical body, passing into or through a tunnel, encountering a mystical light, intense and generally positive emotions, a review of part or all of their prior life experiences, encountering deceased loved ones, and a choice to return to their earthly life.”
"God is love" says the Bible, the Word of God (1 John 4:7-12) Do you believe in love? then you believe in God. How do you prove love to yourself? If you prove love, you prove God! There’s no love without God, the source of all true love. He’s not only the love of my life, He’s the life of my love!
Jesus said “I’m... the life.” (John 14:16)
“God gives life to everything.” (1 Timothy 6, 13)
Do you believe in life? You prove life, you prove God, eternal life, source of all life:
That is where you should start your journey of discovery, but first pray: "God, life of my love, if you exist, please show me the way to find the bliss of knowing You"
or even better:
Think this with your heart: “Jesus, if you are the Son of God, I consecrate my heart to your Heart. Please send me the Holy Spirit so I can see Truth and have the courage to convert and follow Him wherever He leads”

I've researched NDEs in the past, and that may well have helped during that non-believing phase of my life. I abandoned many of my beliefs for many years, but I continued to recognize the presence of evil, beyond the human kind, in this world. I'm sure that helped!
Having been raised with no religion - lots of love and Ethics, but no religion - the word "sin" has interested Me greatly. As I studied many religions, seeing gems of truth in mountains of dogma in them all, it occurred to Me that "sin" is the breaking of the three Laws of Ethics, those Laws that are the foundation of common law. We would have virtually no social problems if We all kept those Laws.
Of course, money motivates the breaking of them all the time...
The three Laws of Ethics (Natural Law expressed as the three things not to do):
1. Do not willfully and without fully informed consent hurt or kill the flesh of anOther
2. Do not willfully and without fully informed consent take or damage anything that does not belong to You alone
3. Do not willfully defraud anOther (which can only happen without fully informed consent)
I do not judge Others based on anything but whether They choose Their behavior Ethically or not. Lineage, religion, affiliation are irrelevant to Me, as long as One chooses Ethical behavior. I may not like Their personality and avoid Them, but as long as They're not breaking the Laws, I will not attack Them.
I seem to be severely overloaded at the moment, but I'll offer a question and some remarks. Where do natural laws originate? (Understanding that I have not yet taken a close look at your blog, just an overview.)
I have also studied a range of religions, not a broad range but inclusive of the major ones. I see what appears to be much effort by humanity to improve itself, and we sure need improving. I don't see that these efforts have been effective.
I see instead a natural law operating where things always corrupt, degrading from higher order to lower order over time, unavoidably. In this view, higher order is possible, but it must be introduced from outside our own existence.
Natural Law is derived from what no One would say would be okay to be done to Themselves.
Those three Laws define the things that if You asked anyOne if They would be okay having them done to Them, to a One They will say "No!" Given this, We can say they are universal, Natural Law.
I have looked long and hard for anything that does not fall into these categories that All will say "no" to. Everything else, it would seem, is a matter of taste.
And I suggest that Humanity is not in need of changes within. Having been homeless for 20 years, at the mercy of Others, I can say with surety that Most want to help. They care. And They do what They can. But money stands in the way, most of the time. They cannot afford much or anything at all.
We need to remove the system that promotes primary (genetic) psychopaths to power, which has two components, either of which alone will promote Them and combined is devastating. The first is money systems. In the few societies that emerged in abundance, where all They needed was there for the taking, no money arose.
The caring Ones took care of things, the People were happy, loving, playful, giving, creative, and doing things They loved to do for the social currencies - the thanks, appreciation, reciprocation, honor, lauds, fame, love, and such that They received. When problems arose, They moved to solve them the best way, not the cheapest or most profitable - or left to fester because there was no money.
And the psychopaths learned to choose Their behavior Ethically or be cast out (or killed).
These societies fell when the "western world" came in, usurped Their land and forces energy account practices on Them.
Our society emerged from scarcity, where all hands were needed to get needed things done. And thus We began accounting for the energy We each add into the community/system to ensure no "skaters" - Ones who took but did not give. First We accounted for the energy in trade/barter, and when that became problematic, representational things. Today, though We have abundance, money motives create artificial scarcity, and keep the psychopaths at the top - for psychopaths LUST after power over Others, and so will do literally anything, Ethical or unEthical, to get and keep the most.
And the psychopaths maintain the accounting for Our energy added. They hide and suppress all technologies offering free energy, because free energy makes accounting for Our energy pointless. And the tool that accounts for it is the only tool to power They have - it buys all the rest They use, the things and the People.
Once We have free energy flowing, it will be about 10 years before money is gone...
The second psychopath-promoting institution is the legal/governmental system. It too offers power over Others and so the psychopaths will be drawn to it. I do not consent to it, standing sovereign under the three Laws of Ethics. And I aim for enough of Us doing the same such that that system falls to the wayside.
Without those systems that promote the primary psychopaths to power over Us, secondary (conditioned) psychopathy will not emerge. In societies run by primary psychopaths, People learn to shut off Their caring, compassion, love, and empathy for Others so as to "succeed," survive, and/or cope. And thus We see the mess We see today, which might lead One to think that Humanity is just psychopathic.
