I had a coworker tell me I was a sinner when I told him I usually go about 10 MPH over the speed limit on the highway on my way to work. He was dead serious that knowingly speeding is not only unlawful it's a sin. I didn't agree.

A lot of people like to make up their own interpretations of God's will, sounds like this guy is one of them.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Thou shalt not speed.
I would think not..
Thou shalt not slay more than 12 dove birds per day...
Maybe?

Shunning the stupid is ABSOLUTELY NOT A SIN.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Ask ol'slowpoke why He created combustion engines capable of high speeds. On second thought nevermind if ol'boy thinks speed is Sin my neighbor with his twin Roadrunners one stroked 383 other 440 and my first truck with the 460 and Holley carb might overdose on sanctimony. I know modern cars are safer but when trouble arises that right foot down and a V8 response grants me a inner peace.Plus folks tend to avoid a 4500 lb vehicle at speed quickly. Florida has a runover rioters law I think. Honda Accord or Buick Gsx? I know my pick.
Bangflop! another skinning job due to .260 and proper shot placement.

Is speeding a sin? Depends on how good a driver you are.
For some, driving itself is a sin.

Sin with the right pedal, repent with the left.
You end up in neutral.

You end up in neutral. Is repenting of your sins required to stop at a red light?

RS308MAX: I do NOT know if speeding is a sin, but after spending nearly 29 years professionally investigating "accidents" I do know this = "speeding does NOT cause every accident but speeding makes EVERY accident worse"! Slow down and arrive alive is my motto. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Speeding's not a sin, but driving slow in the passing lane is.
