Sin certainly is an abstract concept, but so are karma, love, evil and many other things that most of us accept as "real."

I guess a bunch of the posters in this thread that are discussing at the moment don't consider Karma, Love or Evil as existing.
Sure their are people who feel love. But at the end of the day its a bunch of chemical reactions in someones body but not Love.

I guess the question is do you belief in a God who judges certain things as Sin or Evil.
But if you don't have such a God, I don't see how something can be a Sin.

That's a mild example of the rebelliousness I'm referring to and is a big part of what makes the sin.

Without a God I don't see how rebelliousness is a bad thing.

Still their are people who do bad things that lead to dispair. But that still doesn't make them Evil. Just people who do bad things.

If you are a Muslim then you are not part of the Christian system so that it is not a sin that you worship Mohamed, but it is a sin against yourself if you worship Jesus.

I guess you know nothing about religions but neither do the Muslims worship Mohammed as a god, nor do they have problems with Jesus as a person. They just think that he wasn't a god but sent by god as an important prophet.
