"
But unfortunately, Christians do not usually consider gossip and its related activity as sin."
Naaah! When they do it, it's called 'confrontation'... and it's OK because
Jesus said to confront people with their failings. So always the gossip's motives are pure and humble. :^>.
Avoiding gossip, though, as the tract said, is extremely difficult. Perhaps even the bringing of news about gossip might itself approach gossip? Dunno... fine line there somewhere and I'm not sure I know exactly where it is.
