It's where people get that idea from.

So, if we didn’t have the Bible then there wouldn’t be any sin?

There isn't any whether we have that book or not. Sin is an abrahamic concept.

FYI, plenty of non-abrahamic religion teaches about sin.

Incorrect, Buddhism has no concept of sin. Dharma, yes, sin, no.

You told me that people get the idea of sin from the Bible...

Yes, that is what I said (and in the post you quoted).

 

[Lisa]

Yes, that is what I said (and in the post you quoted).

So why did you say

There isn't any whether we have that book or not.

Aren’t ya contradicting yourself?

 

[LadyEris]

Aren’t ya contradicting yourself?

No. I said there is there is no sin out of the Bible/Abrahamic religions. It's an abrahamic concept. Both posts say the exact same thing twice.
Sin is not a thing.

 

[floss]

Yes. What is the relevance?

Long story short, I've personally participate in this "repentence of sins" ritual where you bow down to Buddha 500x to be "washed clean" of your sins. Took about 4-5 hours to complete but you get a fresh start onward.

"Repentance" is not a Buddhist word or concept, neither are 'sins'. You sound like you're trying to syncretize Christianity to Buddhism which does not work.

That’s fine then - I guess it’s OK to kill you and eat you, then take any of your things I like the look of?!

Fortunately, I believe there is such a thing as sin. As to the Bible causing it, perhaps a better description would be accurately diagnosing it? Just as a doctor might tell you what your symptoms indicate, you might well be in denial till the visit, and leave with your condition having a name.

Romans 7:7 (KJV)

7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.

The Abrahamic concept of "Sin" is a different thing from morality. Don't conflate.
