I have explained that sin constitutes mal-adaptive behavior. There is not one sin mentioned in The Bible which would fail to make society progress in reverse over time.
Sin is rewarding because it has rewards. Take fornication, for an example. Fornication provides an immediate pleasure. The ancients had discovered the value of planned births. Fornication created unplanned pregnancies. It also spread infections, none of which could be cured back then. Such things work against mankind’s forward progress.
It is the nature of sin to provide benefits and it does. The benefits are immediate rewards but they are all up front. Costs and risks outweigh the benefits over time.
Costs of sin impact society as a whole. There are no victimless sins.
