Bad things people do

Hello English Learners!

What are sins and how bad are they?  Have you ever done anything really terrible?  Or are you always completely correct in your actions?  By following the link below, you will come to an American radio show called "This American Life".  Listen to the episode we linked to below entitled "Mortal Vs. Venial" and complete the tasks below.  When you finish, email us your answers at tutor@virtualingua.de

Enjoy!

Visit the This American Life website and listen to the show "Mortal Vs. Venial" here:  http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/463/mortal-vs-venial

1.  What is mortal sin and what is venial sin as described in the show?
2.  Please summarize the three acts.
3.  Have you ever done anything terrible that could be considered a "sin"?  Did it have any effects on your life or did you learn an important lesson from it?
