Take a journey from the beginning of this Age right through the Hippie and Woke ideologies to understand how they all deal with the issue of SIN. Ancient moral codes from around the world have striking similarities. For instance, the Egyptian 42 Negative Confessions from 4000 years ago align with the Bible's ethics.
After 4,000 years of progress, what happens when the ancient model for right and wrong is abandoned? How were ethics redefined by the Hippie Movement transforming into the current focus on "Identity?" SIN follows the quest by kingdoms for ethical societies and concern for integrity of the soul.
Steinle explores moral codes from 2100 BCE through 1500 CE, discovering texts and artifacts proving righteousness has been in the minds of humanity from the beginning of this Age. In the 21st-century-atheist view, ethics and moral standards are progressing in step with human advancement.
Consequences of violating pop culture’s ethics might include cancellation, being doxxed, or tagged with demonizing names. According to the CDC, suicide rates for ages 15–19 increased 57% from 2009 through 2017. Guilt and shame are certainly not new; but suddenly decoupled from the ancient ways, and “falling short” of the unforgiving pop standards, where can people turn for acceptance and restoration?
What if the answer to personal peace has been there all along? Not a hoax or gimmick; but what millions of people for thousands of years have actually experienced. Relief from the damage of sin for both the offended and the offender. And it all starts with seeing SIN for what it is.
