I have heard it many times that

If you don't know it's a sin then you haven't sinned

This makes no sense to me. It would mean that ignorance is useful to avoid sin and ʝʊdɛօmasonry is correct to make people ignorant.

Well, deliberately staying in ignorance in order to avoid willingly sinning is also sinful.

Sin is sin, however one can sin in ignorance and not be held guilty. Once a person realizes he sinned, he must repent, change his behavior, or, if it was in the past, a simple confession suffices. Yes, remaining deliberately in ignorance is a sin!

Founded in 2006, CathInfo is the largest English-language forum dedicated to fostering community and discussion among the Traditional Catholic remnant, scattered throughout the world, who strive to take the Faith seriously and learn the truth about all things sacred and secular.

CathInfo provides information, news, and discussion, as well as a place to meet fellow Traditional Catholics for friendship and support in our struggles with the Modern World.

We welcome the largest possible number of faithful Traditional Catholics of good will, from all backgrounds and walks of life, who are able to coexist in the same virtual space with those holding a wide variety of viewpoints on the Crisis in the Church, which began around 1965 with Vatican II.

CathInfo embodies the maxim: "in necessariis unitas, in dubiis libertas, in omnibus caritas." which translates: "In necessary things unity, in doubtful things liberty, in all things charity."

Therefore we allow as much free discussion as possible, and moderate posts only rarely. Think "free speech" minus anything sinful.

CathInfo is the de-facto discussion headquarters for the SSPX Resistance, which it officially supports.
Traditional Catholics worldwide have made us the #1 forum for SSPX Resistance news and discussion in the English-speaking world.
