Is it Sin that makes one a sinner?
Or is it Kin that makes one a sinner?

Many say we are born innocent and untainted, and yet in Sin we are all related to one another. For we are one Kin, and with this Sin we share that we are born with. And even a certain doctrine holds that one's Kin, through the fact of birth, inherit a tainted nature with a proclivity to sinful conduct in need of regeneration…

"I was brought forth in iniquity, and in Sin did my Mother conceive me."
…or so the doctrine says,

"We are all born sinners because of Kin that brings us together."
…and so we think: we are born with Sin inherited from our Kin,

But, should that hold us back from acting with virtue?
No, we should not hold back, even when Sin entered the world through one Kin, and Death through Sin, and in this way, Death came to all beings, because all sinned,

But even so, we all have freedom to be a being we want when we embrace Death,
To be a fraudulent Human,
To be a violent Angel,
To be a benevolent Devil,

And what one wants to be, neither "Sin" nor "Kin" should define what "Self" one is going to be, let "Journey" instead that defines one "Self"

Sin of Kin

Such a revelation that urged his step to come to a halt. Even for a man who was quite a sophisticated captain back in the day, an unexpected word of the disclosure being uttered out of his former subordinate's mouth was able to deliver quite a blow into his mind. Taken aback therefore he was there for a second, while his mind processed what he had just heard,

"That's right, nasty sorcery – a new finding we just obtained after questioning a cooperative nobleman," the youngin, Aquilo, his former subordinate, followed his former captain as well, halting his step and turning around to meet his eyes with that of confused ones, "That's the reason why I sought your assistance, Captain Licorice, because of your familiarity with that sort of thing."
