...And thats what your holy men discuss, is it? [asked Granny Weatherwax.] Not usually. There is a very interesting debate raging at the moment on the nature of sin. for example. [answered Mightily Oats.] And what do they think? Against it, are they? Its not as simple as that. Its not a black and white issue. There are so many shades of gray. Nope. Pardon? Theres no grays, only white thats got grubby. Im surprised you dont know that. And sin, young man, is when you treat people like things. Including yourself. Thats what sin is. Its a lot more complicated than that-- No. It aint. When people say things are a lot more complicated than that, they means theyre getting worried that they wont like the truth. People as things, thats where it starts. Oh, Im sure there are worse crimes-- But they starts with thinking about people as things... --from Carpe Jugulum, by Terry Pratchett.
