Sinful awarepaths
A sin is sometimes defined as an immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law, as in sin in the eyes of "god". It can also be unrelated to gods as in socially unacceptable behavior or as an act regarded as a serious or regrettable fault, offense, or omission. If an awarepath is sinful depends on the perspective of the conscious beings making the judgement. An awarepath being just the consciousness over time does not necessarily directly effect reality.
There are many people that want a absolute definition of sin that is not dependent on the current judgement of other people. This definition is frequently based on what "god" considers bad or sinful behavior. This is supposed to eliminate personal definitions of sin and make sin a universally defined concept. The problem is if there is no god or different gods with different definitions of sin there will be no universally accepted concept of sin.
A sinful awarepath is not the same as a sinful person. A sinful person is a body. A sinful awarepath is a consciousness over time. A sinful person's body produces an awarepath it it is alive and conscious. It also produces a behaviorpath. The behaviorpath and awarepath do not have to be directly connected. It is thus possible to have a sinful behaviorpath and not have a sinful awarepath. The reverse is also a possibility. There can be a sinful awarepaths without having a sinful behaviorpath. The second case is easier to understand than the first because people can have evil thoughts without doing evil behavior. But how can you do evil behavior and not have evil thoughts? By not being aware of the sinfulness of your behavior. For instance, a parent could severely punish a child and not be aware of the evilness of the act. Hitler might have truly believed that what he did was for the good of mankind.
In an awarepaducer a sinful awarepath could be produced that has no behaviorpath. If it causes no external problems like suffering or destruction etc,. is is still sinful in the sense that it should not be created? The creation of a sinful awarepaths that do not have negative consequences do to its negative behaviorpath can still be useful in understanding awarepaths and their effects on reality in general.
If we take, for instance, Hitler's awarepath and used some of awaretheory's principles on it we can modify it in any ways we so desire.
