You mean you aren't a sinner, too...?

There was only one perfect man and they crucified Him.

I've yet to meet anyone who hasn't sinned even after coming to Christ,

Well .... that's comforting. Good to know that people still recognize their frailities and dependence on God.

though maybe you run with a better crowd than I do....

Probably not :-) However, here is how we approach repentance.

Hmmm..., well my Bible doesn't mention anything about mortal or venial sins so I assume this is all part of the tradition of Catholicism.

I'm certain that my brand of Christianity looks odd to Catholics, just as the practice of Catholicism looks odd to me. Maybe we should resolve to do as St Paul admonishes in 1 Corinthians 10 and seek the good of all-- "Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks, or the church of God--"
