Notes About The Poem
This is very important for all people to know, I love you

Mortal Sin

Mortal sin requires full knowledge
Complete consent
Presupposes knowledge
The sinful character of the act
Oppose to Eternal God’s law

Implies a consent
Sufficiently deliberate
A personal choice

Feigned ignorance
Hardiness of heart
Not diminish
Increase
Character of sin 
(CCC 1859)
