Individualizing Sin and the Sinner: I. Causes

Sin has usually been studied from either the traditional theological or the more modern social point of view. The first approach is abstract and metaphysical; the second, collective and environmental. The objection to the first method is that it is unscientific; to the second, that it is too general...

520 |a Sin has usually been studied from either the traditional theological or the more modern social point of view. The first approach is abstract and metaphysical; the second, collective and environmental. The objection to the first method is that it is unscientific; to the second, that it is too general. What is primarily needed is the detailed analytic study of concrete cases of sin and of individual sinful persons. Modern criminology is approaching this same problem, in this case defined as delinquency, from the case-study point of view. Its findings, therefore, should be significant for the theological restatement of the problem of sin and suggestive for the religious treatment of the sinner. This first article deals with the causes of delinquency as ascertained by criminology and social psychology. The succeeding article will describe the modern social and scientific treatment of the wrongdoer, as an individual and as a person, and suggest certain implications for the treatment of sin and the sinner.
