Sometimes there's the accusation that father,

you talk often a lot, an awful lot about sin.

And I'm like, yeah, guilty.

Get it?

My name's Father Mike Schmitz

and this is a sin to present.

Is there such a thing as an accidental sin?

The answer ultimately, no.

I mean, because a lot of times we think,

like, you know, sin is a mistake or a sin is, yeah,

I, again, I had an accident.

I should have done that thing.

I remember being a, being younger and thinking,

I don't think I could explain why something's a sin

if no one gets hurt.

Like, I remember thinking about this

and just thinking like, I don't know.

There's some things that, there's some sins

where no one gets hurt.

And the question is, how could there be a sin

if no one gets hurt?

It goes to the heart of what is our definition of a sin.
