“It appears that you two are speaking (writing) of two different documents. The “midterm document” doesn’t mention sin. The 1986 document from the CDF, which is quoted in the article of this thread, does mention sin.”
Here is the document:
http://press.vatican.va/content/salastampa/en/bollettino/pubblico/2014/10/13/0751/03037.html
Please note the date of that document: Oct. 13, 2014 NOT 1986.
Cut and paste it into Word. Search for the word “sin”. It shows up in paragraphs 16, 27, 47. The document mentions sin three times. ANYONE saying the document does not mention “sin” is wrong. It’s just that simple.
However, in your replies #16 and #23 above, you quote from a document produced by the CDF in 1986. If you scroll to the bottom of the linked page, you will see "Given at Rome, 1 October 1986" and it is signed by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, Prefect. The quote is from section three of the document.
