I found JJ's thread and related poll quite interesting, so I've decided to poll a few more options. This time I'm going for stuff a religious nutter might send you to 'hell' for. :)

Those to which I am prepared to admit:

Been unnecessarily impolite - yes. Some people deserve my contempt. However, much of the time I am as polite as I can be in order to grease the wheels of society.

Done something in malice - When I was younger, yes. Nowadays, I am too old to care.

Been greedy or gluttonous - I don't think I have, at least not intentionally. So this is a no.

Lied - who hasn't? I don't think my lying helped me any, though, so I try to avoid major untruths these days.

Kept something I've found, instead of handing it in - Nope.

Cheated on partner/spouse - Nope. Not in my nature.

Done 'stuff' before marriage - Nope, as I'm not married. ;) What's "stuff" anyway?

Done 'stuff' with someone of the same sex - Nope.

Taken the Lord's name in vain - yes, though I don't think it even matters as I'm an atheist.

Called Gordon Brown a 'c**t' - no. George W Bush, however - actually, no. I've called them both other names, but the c-word is still one I find hard to use.

9/10 with the proviso that the "cheating" was done when I was younger with previous "girlfriends". It seemed my view of the status of my relationships with others in the past wasn't the same as some of their views so I'm not sure if that is techinically cheating.

With my current girlfriend, no. I don't see the point, if you want to cheat then you don't want to be with the person you're with.

I also ticked the taking the lord's name in vein. I don't believe in the beardy fella so it's impossible to take the name in vein.

So perhaps it's more 7/10.

I've done everything except cheat on a partner and called Gordon Brown a front-bottom. I like that word far too much to use it on someone like Gordon Brown :lol:

I believe I'll be reincarnated, but if not, I really hope I'm going to hell, if heaven is going to be full of sanctimonious do-gooding xtian one-true-way-ists I don't want to spend eternity there :D

:shock: I suddenly feel polluted. Out of everyone here it seems I'm the one most pandering to the religious nuts views on morality. ;)
