Ooo, the catechism!

Sin is any want of conformity unto, or transgression of, the law of God. Westminster Shorter Catechism

Sin is an offense against reason, truth, and right conscience; it is failure in genuine love for God and neighbor caused by a perverse attachment to certain goods. It wounds the nature of man and injures human solidarity. It has been defined as "an utterance, a deed, or a desire contrary to the eternal law." Catholic catechism

So, religion and faith are sin? Interesting lol

Wait, is there something missing or am I not getting something? How can "wanting to conform to the law of god" be sin?

want meaning 'lack' in this context (e.g. 'found wanting')
