But sin is not merely a wrong, it is a transgression of God's law, religious principle. I don't understand how one can not believe in God, yet accept that he must repent from sinning.
I accept those who do not profess a faith can be moral, decent, honorable people, that's not in question with me whatever. Just the repenting from sin specifically, this doesn't jive somehow.

My godmother insisted on the text of the prayer and she is a nun. Now that you pointed it out, may be “wrongdoings” would have been a better word for me to use in my case.
