Sin. Nice little three letter word. Has that nasty little S at the beginning. Never have liked that letter. S, as in snake or sinister or sex. Without that S, 'sin' would be 'in'.
From what I've read, even about early Christian considerations of the word, sin meant simply "missing the mark." A far cry from the heavy, overwrought message the word mostly conveys today.
