mortal sins

[Extra ecclesiam nulla salus]

if one thinks that one commits a mortal sin but one does not, is a mortal sin commited?

God Bless,

[quote name='CCC #1857']For a sin to be mortal, three conditions must together be met: "Mortal sin is sin whose object is grave matter and which is also committed with full knowledge and deliberate consent."[/quote]

[quote name='CCC #1859']Mortal sin requires full knowledge and complete consent. It presupposes knowledge of the sinful character of the act, of its opposition to God's law. It also implies a consent sufficiently deliberate to be a personal choice. Feigned ignorance and hardness of heart do not diminish, but rather increase, the voluntary character of a sin.[/quote]

That is the answer.
