The more sins to juggle, the worse the mind works.

None of our minds work well when distracted by sin. One may assume that, while there are differences in innate intellectual ability, sin makes sinners far dumber than their minds’ actually are. The rule is: “The more we sin, the dumber we become.”

Expecting the sin-burdened person to think effectively is like asking a juggler to go on juggling four or five balls while he tries to negotiate a complicated lease.

He might be able to do a credible job working on the lease while juggling one or two balls, but as more balls are added, his ability to think correctly wanes.

Our own minds don’t work well when we’re juggling sins. It’s important to realize that there’s rarely, if ever, just one sin. Catholic Fundamentalists understand that each sin is preceded by a desire for the sin, it is accompanied by justifications for the sin, and it is followed by explanations for having committed the sin.

The more sin, the more juggling. The more juggling, the less we can get done.
