How does sinning effect society?

Answer 1

As this is a subjective question, I can only answer with a subjective answer here. If by sinning, you are referring to certain unsavory acts, then I would think that the answer is somewhat obvious on a basic level. Sinning almost always refers to a negative action committed by one individual upon another, either directly or indirectly. Of course when speaking of sinning, it is always important to identify the party that has been sinned against. If a sin, for instance is against society, then the measure by which one determines the effect will be different, depending on the accepted values of that society. One man's murder is another man's justice, etc. If, however, the sin is against God, then the measure is much different, and the effects may be seen differently. However you look at it though, there is almost certainly a victim, even if unintended.
