But God Made Me This Way is an article on Relevant Magazine's site adapted from Christianish by Mark Steele.
Here's an excerpt that caught my attention:

I think thats a little harsh. This is not the old testament. Salvation connects everything that sin separates us from. Being consumed by sin could cause a separation, but we are born into sin, so your free will to do sin separates us more than the sin itself
Very, very interesting prospective. Thanks! @ Sens
