because people are human and born sinners.All must repent and walk a straight path... But some just take a little longer to do it than others...

There are three secenarios that I can think of:
They did not know that an action was a sin when they did it.
>They commit adultery, then find out later that sleeping around is a sin.
They knew that an action is a sin, but did not realize that they themselves did the action.
>They know that adultery is a sin, but came down with a rare case of amnesia right before they slept around, rendering their memory of any previous marriage useless for a few hours.
They knew the action was a sin, and did it anyway.
>They know that adultery is a sin and sleep around anyway.

Because Satan took the form of a Serpent (snake) and tricked Eve into taking from the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowlege of good and evil and Adam did also eat. Before this, man had no knowlege of good and evil. They were perfect. Eating the fruit made them imperfect by passing sin into their flesh. Besides knowing good and evil and being naturally prone to sin after eating that fruit, it also caused us to die. I really think that if someone could not sin at all, then they wouldn't die. But, it is impossible. Blame Adam! No, not that Adam at the grocery store. The Adam of the Garden of Eden. For it is through Adam that all men were given this "sin disease" and all men must die!

No sins. Only errors. In the whole realm what we live undergoes evolution through all push and pull factors. All commits errors before they achieve perfection. Once they become a perfected being, they will help others to correct their errors. Commiting error is not a conscious affair. It happens by thinking of protecting some material, body or situation. But, those who realise nothing remains constant and live in that realisation, never commits any error. But, before reaching that perfected stage people err as.....missile goes zig-zag before it reaches its goal.

Because we are people and we do it every day and most of the time cant help it. Eating more than your suppose to everyone does that especially on like thanksgiving or christmas, gossiping come on now you know you do it, talking back to your parents what kid hasnt asked why when being told what not to do or what to do, cussing even in your mind if you say it in your head might as well said it out loud. Its impossible not to sin

what do you mean by 'sins'? a sin is an offense to God, but what if the person doesn't believe in God? are they really committing a sin?

A sin in whose eyes. I don't believe in sins. They are to fun to break. Laws and rules were made to be broken.

Because of Adam. Thanks to him our sinful nature was awakened. We continue to sin because it is exciting and seems fun, but we don't realize how damaging it is. But there is hope, just as sin and death came through Adam forgiveness and eternal life came through the one man, Jesus.

coz society has their own border that control its people and decide what the "truth" and what the "false" are. That's why, in many places some "false" is fine to be done and some "true" is false to be done.
