No!!!!!!!!

No way! If this was the case, EVERYONE in the world would be sick.

It is really medieval thinking that your sin will makeyou sick. It is not medieval that you can make yourself sick by dwelling on such things. It is not clear what you have been taught, but traditional Christian theology handles this particular question reasonably well. The fact is that we are ALL sinners, and not only that, we are all deserving of everlasting torment in hell. The contributor above says as much. However, there is a hidden assumption in the question that hasn't been addressed. The assumption is that somehow, you are REQUIRED to be perfect and spotless while on earth; not only that but it must be possible for you to be perfect and spotless while here on earth. That is a preposterous and damaging assumption. I think there are some emotionally fragile people who make themselves sick by demanding of themselves that they be perfect; or they are so emotionally brittle that they can't see their lives unfolding as a world-class monument to the sin of pride. You could say "I am flawed. I have done wrong things and neglected to do good things. I have questionable motives and have hurt people thoughtlessly, and sometimes to advance my own agenda." Questioner: I hope you are still reading-- I just described myself. Did you think I was talking about you, or maybe every other living soul on the planet? Hmmm.. Now stop the pity party and get back to living.

Why isn't life perfect?

Life is not perfect because Adam sinned and we inherited the consequences of his disobedience. He was created perfect; once he sinned he lost the mark of perfection and the punishment for sin was death. Rom 5:12 (That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned---. 13 For until & (Rom 6:23 For the wages sin pays is death.) Mankind would be perfect and so would the world, but because of Adam we are inclined to do bad and our bodies brake down, deteriorate and we grow old, get sick and die.
