Well, it isn't really a sin to fart in church. I bet even the people beside you fart. Unless you farted in there more than 10 times, damn you're screwed! And careful, someone might hear you're fart.

When I went to catholic school in the mid 50s we had to go to church every morning at 8 am.
We hated this so every morning we would have a contest to see who could fart the loudest.
The church was huge and the acoustics were fantastic. You could hear a pin drop anywhere in the church. We soon learned that when we were kneeling the empty church pews made fantastic amplifiers. We would push our butts up to the pew as hard as we could and squeeze out the biggest fart possible. Some of them were absolutely deafening.
The nuns always tried to catch who ever was doing it but we had a lot of practice at keeping perfectly straight angelic little faces.
One day I started out the chorus with a deafening roar. I turned around to see my admiring public. Most of the boys were looking at me with big grins on their faces. To my horror I saw the principal coming down the aisle right toward us. I quickly turned on my most angelic look. All the while expecting to be snatched from my seat any minute.
Nothing happened for a while so I sunk a look behind me. She was an evil red-faced nun with all the positive qualities of an executioner. She was standing in an empty pew right behind my friend Gerry. I assumed he knew she was behind him. All the sudden he got this demonic smile on his face and I saw hat he was pressing his butt up against the pew behind him.
Before I could do anything to warn him there was a tremendous roar that shook the whole church. I watched in horror as I saw my friend being dragged backwards by his throat gasping for air. She dragged him right over the back of the pew, choking him with one hand and slapping him repeatedly on the face with the other.
If only I could have had a picture of the look on his face as she snatched him from his triumphal toot, and turned his moment of glory into stark terror.
If farting in church is a sin, every boy in that class is doomed.
Love and blessings Don

Looks to me like you just had a brain fart. Grow up.

it's natural - god created the digestive system, after all
it's all about how you do it, because if your sole motive for farting is to crack yourself up and/or to make lots of noise then i guess it could be a sin

The body is not sinful. The idea that our bodies and their actions and functions are sinful is one of the greatest lies perpetrated by Christianity.

you'd be sitting in your own pew.
In some churches if you breathe the wrong way it's a sin! Otherwise, I don't see why it would be.....embarrassing maybe, a sin, doubt it!

It's not necessarily a sin but it is a manner/politeness problem.

It's a compliment. It means your just as comfortable in church as you are at home.
