There is no such a thing as "sin".
Only mistakes.
The reason the word "sin" was invented was to dupe morons out of thier money. Buying your way back into the good graces of the church is the only way they know to survive.So, they placidly tell you that you're a sinner and nothing can be done but by all means, put money in the collection plate if you want to be forgiven.
Lather, rince, repeat ad nauseum.
And the churches keep collecting the cash by the trainload.
Pathetic if you ask me...

Yes I do consider myself a sinner. But a sinner saved by grace. We all are sinners. Romans 3:23 says "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." There is no sin worse then another. They all need to be forgiven. It does say in the bible that there is one sin that is unforgivable. Matthew 12:31 "Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men." What I think that means is if you have a relationship with Jesus Christ and then later you say there is no God. I believe that what it means but I'm not for sure.

Yes I am a sinner. One sin is no worse than another! And yes God forgives all sin, the only unforgiveable sin is not accepting Jesus Christ as you're saviour before the end of your earthly life!

All people have sinned, with the exception of Jesus. All sins are forgiveable in the eyes of the Lord; nowhere in the bible does it say some sins can be forgiven and some cannot be. Read the bible and figure it out for yourself if you don't believe me.

Most certainly. I have committed most every sin there is except for worshiping graven images and murder. Not perfect, just forgiven.
In my opinion, the worst sin I have committed is violation of the fifth commandment to 'honor thy mother and father' for which I both lived to regret and repent.
There is only one unforgivable sin. To refuse to let the Holy Spirit speak through you when you're brought before the Synagogue of Satan should you be one of God's Elect.

Absolutely. Anyone who doesn't consider themselves a sinner is fooling themselves. Everyone has a guilty conscience that convicts them. Everyone acts selfishly, everyone says mean things, everyone is a sinner. Christians are not perfect, just forgiven.
"A Christian is not someone who has no sin or feels no sin, but someone against whom God does not count his sin."-Martin Luther.

What is sin? I would say no, I'm not. I'm not overwhelmed with remorse and guilt. I haven't done anything that would make my parents ashamed of me. I take responsibility for myself, and don't look to be forgiven by someone in the sky.

In the definition of sin being short of perfection, then yes. I am a sinner.

Yes.
Would rather not share - yes I feel I've been forgiven.
I think most are forgivable. I know denying the Holy Ghost isn't (that means open rebellion after having a huge amount of spiritual knowledge - like visions and all that).

Sin is being out of right relationship with God. All of us fall short of perfection, and are, therefore, sinners. God is perfect, and nothing imperfect can be in His holy presence. That is why Jesus, son of God and son of man, came and took upon His perfect, holy self the sins of the world. We can't earn salvation. We can only accept the gift of salvation that Jesus gives us. In other words, God paid the penalty for our sins Himself. Acceptance is what puts us in right relationship with God.
