FOUR TYPES OF SIN

The Church teaches that we can sin in thought, word and deed
- sins of commission,
and also by sins of omission.
Since temperament types all have weaknesses
some of us tend more towards sins of one type than others
- though of course we are capable of them all!
So perhaps  the thinker is predisposed to sins of thought;
the doer to sins of deed;
the talker to sins of word;
and the observer to sins of omission - he or she just doesn't do anything!
Or maybe we tend to sin in the faculties over which we have less control?

Whatever the case,
the different types of sin correspond with our four faculties as shown above.
