Many here believe that there is Absolute Light and Absolute Darkness.
So...
Imagine this situation.
The First Crusade, you are in the crusader army, and after taking the city, the commander orders to kill all prisoners. Among them is a boy, about six years old. You can save him, risking your life. But... you can also carry out the order and take on the sin of killing an innocent... although a pilgrimage will remove all sins, so what difference does it make, more or less...

What would YOU do?
P.S. In a month, I will give an answer to all possible scenarios.
It all depends on the dogmas and upbringing. If you consider the task itself and its execution to be more important, and you believe it to be of the highest importance (in this case, the crusade), then you will try to follow this task and its principles, no matter what, i.e., you will kill the child. But if moral principles are most important to you, then you will not kill the child. Although there are many other perspectives! In general, this situation is very complex, especially if you consider those times and that fanaticism, and the role of faith. Of course, if you killed a hundred such children or women, you would be considered a defender of your faith and people, and you would feel like one. But, it is interesting, how would your conscience torment you? Or maybe it would be dormant? Or maybe it would calm down a little after you repent. Who knows... I would probably act like the crusader, although I don't know.
