Yes.
God struck me dead for opening the book.
But I got better.

It is said that God put us on this earth for a reason, right? Well, if what Christians say is true that God is 'all-knowing' than of course he knew that we were going to question his existence eventually. He knew that people would stop believing, that people would start questioning Him. However, if God loves each and every one of His so called 'children' then why would he consider it a sin for you to be questioning His existence? He knows that it's only natural that it was bound to happen. Read your book. You are not sinning. You are being human.

Not necessarily but you must recognize that you can easily fall into sin by advancing in reading it and potentially accepting what the book says. Effectively that God does not exist.
All in all, it's not a book which will help you advance spiritually. That's for sure.
God bless you.

No. Foregoing the quest for knowledge for the sake of some religious dogma is a sin.

Gaining knowledge and information is not a sin. Its what you do with that information that may be sinful.

Educating yourself to obtain knowledge is never a sin.

Filling your mind with knowledge is never a sin, but subverting or oppressing knowledge should be.

Nope, the true sin is being ignorant of the other side.

A religious sin
Not a moral Sin at all
A mental virtue.
Hooray for haiku's.

Definitely not. I read opposing views all the time to keep my opinion sharp.
