Secret sins are exceptionally common. We all have them or at least have had them in the past.

There was a time when the “prom” was limited to juniors and seniors in high school. Today it is not uncommon to find dances at almost all levels of schooling.

Many will hardly consider the cost of our Declaration [...]
