Sinning requires a conscious awareness and a desire to perform an action and the ability to discern right from wrong.
Consequently any action done that stems from an inabilty to tell right from wrong or without full awareness...cannot be sin.

Well that sentence is pure sense and logic, it goes against all that is Christian.

Sinning requires a conscious awareness, a desire to perform an action, and the ability to discern right from wrong.

Consequently, any action that stems from an inability to discern right from wrong, or a lack of awareness of right and wrong, cannot be sin.

Or did you mean fault in concept rather than English? I'm confused...

I would agree with the concept of what is said in these two sentences. I would not use the word "sin" because it is a religious concept. The word "wrong" is sufficient.

People that do wrong without knowledge of right and wrong (hello Adam and Eve) are not accountable for it.

Sin is not always a conscience awareness...That is why the Holy Spirit makes intercession for us. We are not always aware of every sin we commit...
It is a sin to purposely do wrong, knowing it is wrong, desiring to do wrong and choosing to do wrong.
If you do not have the mental capacity to tell the difference between right and wrong, God does not hold you accountable.

Romans 6:23

"Next, notice a second distinction of the sin offering. In several verses, we see that some sins are committed unknowingly. This is a major distinction of the sin offering. It does not deal with acts of deliberate evil, which all of us commit from time to time, but with our sin nature--the part of our humanity that prompts these acts and which often takes us by surprise.

Most of us have a fairly good opinion of ourselves. Oh, sure, we have our flaws and failings--but all in all, we consider ourselves good people. Yet, from time to time, we get caught doing or saying something we didn't even think we were capable of something we thought we would never do. We protest, "But that's not the way I am! That was out of character for me to do that!" But was it? Or did that moment of sin force us to realize that our sin nature runs even more deeply in us than we had realized?

That is what the sin offering speaks to us about--the sin that catches us off guard, the unsuspected depths of evil in all of us, even in the best of us."

But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and whatever is not from faith is sin. (Romans 14:23)

To sin is not a question of doing or not doing, it is a state. But, as told later, we all are born in sin, we already have the mark. To kill someone because you are too high, self deluded or unaware of a consequence...is still your fault. Legally you are to bear all or part of the burden.

I believe the first part. But sin makes us blind to sin. So I don't agree with the second half.
