Examples of sinful in a Sentence

1. Lucius Beebe:

   New York... Babylon-on-the-Hudson, sinful, extravagant, full of the nervous hilarity of the doomed.

2. Lenore Hershey:

   Do give books - religious or otherwise - for Christmas. They're never fattening, seldom sinful, and permanently personal.

3. Larry Pratt:

   Christian doctrine teaches that man is fallen. He's sinful and our natural tendency is to do bad things, so, especially in a church, we ought to be alert to the fact that there might be a dirt bag on the loose. ... To try to assume that no defense is a good defense is a lousy theology.

4. James Fenimore Cooper:

   Slavery is no more sinful, by the Christian code, than it is sinful to wear a whole coat, while another is in tatters, to eat a better meal than a neighbor, or otherwise to enjoy ease and plenty, while our fellow creatures are suffering and in want.

5. May Sarton:

   I always forget how important the empty days are, how important it may be sometimes not to expect to produce anything, even a few lines in a journal. I am still pursued by a neurosis about work inherited from my father. A day where one has not pushed oneself to the limit seems a damaged damaging day, a sinful day. Not so! The most valuable thing we can do for the psyche, occasionally, is to let it rest, wander, live in the changing light of a room, not try to be or do anything whatever.
