https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_the_Tanner (where it says ‘stumble’ in the article, in the church relief it says ‘sin’ – which made me reflect upon the equation of sin with sex and how a lot of religion seems to deal with the disruptive forces of attraction to others, and yes, there are other sins too)
