I heard the illustration many years ago that even if we sinned just three times a day, that would be over 1,000 sins a year.

Over the course of the average lifespan of about 70 years, that would be over 70,000 ins.

Yes....I've heard that as well.

Kinda puts into perspective those "little sins" or what Roman Catholics like to call "venial" doesn't it?

I wonder how many venial sins it takes to equal one mortal sin.
