What does "the sin against the Holy Spirit" mean to you?

What it means to me, personally, is irritation, because it's the kind of thing that people worry about or accuse other people of.

I'd heard that it refers to suicide or despair, but personally, I don't believe in any unpardonable sins.

Well, the point about suicide was that you wouldn't have time to repent afterwards, iirc.

And if 'holy spirit' here meant 'wisdom' or 'conscience', and the sin was refusing to EVER listen to wisdom/conscience, then you'd be pretty much screwed. (And, again, wouldn't have the wisdom to repent.)
