After an introduction that asserts the need to retain Christian talk of sin, and after some warnings about how not to deal with the language of sin, the first part explicates the epistemology of sin as driven by manifold differences. The second part describes original sin as an "insane shift" (Ver-rücktheit) in the web of the relationally dynamic becoming of creation. The last part deals with different phenomena of sin as a description of actual sin: (1) the perversion of wayfaring into transport; (2) sin as a mad shift in perceiving truth and value; (3) sin as decontingentization and reduction of contingency; (4) sin as mercantilization and manipulation; (5) sin as pseudo-personalization and functionalization, (6) sin as unfaithfulness, betrayal, and untruthfulness; (7) sin and reason; (8) sin and affectivity; (9) sin and imagination; (10) sin, will, and desire; (11) sin as incurvation in individualism and collectivism; (12) sin as the reduction of dynamics; (13) sin and digitalization; (14) religion as sin; (15) the mediality of sin; (16) sin, sanctification, and ethics.
