Sin is always sinful — it is not divinely placed to guide humans; God works good through evil but that does not transform evil into good.

Sin is sinful by definition; calling it otherwise would mean whatever was done was not actually sin. Mike distinguishes complex moral dilemmas (where a right answer exists even if difficult to discern) from moral relativism. God working good through evil (Romans 8:28-style providence) does not sanctify the evil itself. He briefly addresses Mormon theology's claim that Adam and Eve sinning was actually good because otherwise they couldn't have procreated — Mike rejects this as theologically confused and unnecessary.
