Oh yeah...she is well aware of my problems with the whole thing.....but there is not real choice. Her family is 1st generation from the old country and to be married anywhere else is unacceptable to them. They are aware of my issues with the dogma and rhetoric, but that is irrelevant. We MUST be married in the church.....regardless of any objections.

crappy man-made traditions.
I pray that those in-law "issues" don't make trouble for you both later on in life.
Oh,and congratulations!

If Satan came to you and said "go really fast and wheelie, and if GOD loves you, HE will save you from hurting yourself".
If you said,"OK, that sounds like a good idea", and you prayed to GOD to save you from yourself and the act you were about to commit.
Then that would be a Sin.
Like Michael throwing himself off the cliff.
Satan came to Michael and said, "throw yourself off the mountain and if GOD truely loves you, HE will save you from Death."
Michael prayed for GOD to save him from the certain death he was facing by throwing himself off the mountain.
If you do something that you will servive only by an act of DEVINE INTERVENTION, then you are testing GOD's LOVE and that is a SIN.
But most riders consider a wheelie to be something that will NOT result in death, unlike throwing yourself off a cliff.
So, then it would not be considered a Sin.
Modern law does not apply here.
The ONLY Law is the OLD testimate.

That is why I worship the devil. I am a man of wealth and taste. Once you let Satan into your life all these questons are answered. Women? Only if it is more than 1 at a time! Wheelies? Sure but only at high speed! Better get some booze and drugs involved too, just to be safe. C'mon, everyone give up some sympathy!
The devil always has room in his house for you. And no rules!
I am not a devil worshipper but I play one on TV.
Lately when I find myself in a Catholic church, for a funeral or a wedding or because I got drunk and passed out on the steps
when I see the priests my brain goes "you fat, guilty, greedy. criminal f&%k shut your mouth! You no longer have any moral authority!" And I wonder HOW MANY children they have abused not IF they are abusers. That is not nice of me. Is that a sin? I think I could get over that and behave myself if I could go for one week without some headline about priests and abuse. Couldn't you? Let women run the churches. Safer for the kids.

Solved my problem long ago.
Buddist.....
I was deep in those arguments + reincarnation + vegetarian food + sexual energy + etc and decided to let it go..... and not argue with anyone.
I remember 2 of my past lifes clearly, Im a veggy, etc. And I dont care much what anyone thinks except my dughter of course, not even my wife in some areas. that is my experience.
I cannot sin Im not a cristian.
I dont have carb problems Im a FI bike!!!!!

Man this topic really went deep, I think the main problem with most religous leaders is that they try to judge us. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. I don't think all priest molest little boys, but all of them sin just like us. So my thing is how can you tell me what I'm doing is wrong and ignore what you do. Now since I can't wheelie (YET) I'm going to call someones daughter and do what I do! (About 3 minutes then sleep!)

sin........I did, multiple times today. Wheeled like a som of a gun and ran it up to 170 a time or two. For me there is only one who sits in the judgment seat, and he was nailed to the cross. Its between him and I...............
