All you need is love.
Told the odd fib, especially when I was a kid, and a few white lies, can't recall stealing much, enjoyed my premarital sex experiences, seen porn, not too bad at forgiving, don't gossip, never hurt anyone while affected by alcohol, and as I said, haven't committed any sins ─ which would involve my knowingly doing harm to others when I could reasonably avoid doing so.
I'm glad to see you rejecting the guilt-trip tactics that are often used to push Christianity down the throats of unbelievers. Speaking as an ex-Christian, there's no more fear, guilt, and shame hanging over my head once I finally decided to abandon my Christian faith and belief in God. It was such a relief for me, and it still is. As far as I'm concerned, Christianity is nothing more than a religion of shame, guilt trips, and fearmongering. There's no amount of inane shaming, guilt trips, or fearmongering that Christians can hurl at me that will ever convince me to become a Christian again. My mental health is better and I'm much happier since I let go of my faith in God.
In that latter category ─ sinful because they involve choosing to do harm ─ are invasive war, massacre of populations, rape and mass rape, human sacrifice, murderous religious intolerance, women as property, slavery and so on. I trust you haven't done any of those things, but considering you think they're all okay, I worry that, if you don't do them, you nonetheless cheer for them.
Personally, I think the God of the Bible should be shunned and outright rejected, considering his atrocious behavior as described in the Bible. I think God's behavior is cruel and sadistic. I definitely don't think he's a god that deserves to be worshiped and praised.
