Paragraph 7. THE FALL

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

386
Sin is present in human history; any attempt to ignore it or to give this dark
reality other names would be futile. To try to understand what sin is, one must
first recognize the profound relation of man to God, for only in this
relationship is the evil of sin unmasked in its true identity as humanity’s
rejection of God and opposition to him, even as it continues to weigh heavy on
human life and history.
