KarenJoanna Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Since my last confession I have cursed maybe twice or not a t all but I have ttaken God's name in vain like öh my God and stuff like that not God you know what. But I did it out of habit I guess, Im trying to break it. Am I in mortal sin? I didnt mean too and I didnt know it was that serious saying oh my ... Also, if I watch any tv shows with curses am i putting myself in occasion of sin? It doesnt make me curse hearing other people do it i guess. i dont know if I am in mortal sin.

Theoketos Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 The axiom I have often heard is, "if there is doubt about whether it is a mortal sin, it is probably not a mortal sin." Neither I nor anyone else, can determine whether you are in the state of grace. But based on you have written, I think it would be good for you to receive communion. Also you need read about scrupulosity. It seems you suffer from it. Such things hinder spiritual growth. Please take the time to read this link.
