The concept of sins is a manifestation of personal self-loathing. What you are feeling is the sense of doing the right thing to please someone; be it your parents( even if they have passed on), or whoever and as a result you have to exaggerate the effects to give them enough meaning for you to validate the process.
People are miserable because of underlying conflicts with the notion of being "good" and being accepted by the group. A good person recieves all the praise and rewards they didn't get in childhood.
You can go for twenty years of 250$ an hour analysis or choose something simple like fundamentalism. It's all the same.
BTW if I came off as harsh earlier please forgive; upon re-reading it I see I owe that to you.
Very entertaining posts my friend.
