Constraints

We have three sorts of constraint on behaviour:

  1. Crimes for serious tortes.
  2. Manners for consideration.
  3. Sin to enforce religious superstitions.

Sin a game played by members of a given sect. It is irrelevant to everyone else. They like to pretend that cutting your lawn on Sunday is terribly wicked, worthy of death. Non-believers would say cutting your lawn before noon is inconsiderate because of the noise.
