How many times have you heard "Gossip's a sin" only to watch that person turn around a Gossip?
The whole "Gossip's a sin" thing has got to be one of the more ridiculous things I've ever heard. after all, you can't tell someone a story about something that happened without "Gossiping".
If I tell my best friend that I saw a girl kissing someone that isn't her boyfriend it's counted as gossip, but really, I'm just telling my friend what I saw. It's human nature to tell your friends what you saw or what you heard. Ok, so maybe what your heard isn't the truth, but if someone asks "Why isn't so and so at school?" and you heard she was pregnant(even if she isn't), is that gossip or just telling what you know? Especially if you say "i heard she is pregnant". It's not like you're saying she is, you're just saying that's what you heard. but does that mean you're spreading gossip? I don't really believe so. if you were to say "she is pregnant" then yes, you are spreading gossip, for you are telling a lie even if it is what you heard. you've just confirmed a lie. So next time before you say "She is" or "he is" think and see if you actually know this as a truth or not. it stops lies or "gossip".
And if I'm talking to my friend and I said "I got threw up this morning" someone might over hear and tell everyone I had morning sickness and then everyone starts to I'm pregnant, were they gossiping or just telling the truth as they knew it?
