Sin is considered a "dirty thing" anyway. If that word was meant to have that type of double meaning well it doesn't help us figure it out any better considering most of the sin theories are vague promises. Some people think Battler leaving the family is his sin. Some people think his sin was a promise to come back on a white horse or a promise to play with Maria every year. Some people think his sin was denying magic in front of Shannon.The sin in Higurashi was something the protagonist caused though. He gave a doll to Rena because he didn't think Mion liked girly things and that ended up making Shion jealous of Mion.
But really his sin is so vague. It could be anything. Some people in some christian groups see lying as a sin. In fact there's a verse that says that all liars deserve to go to hell. So are we dealing with moral people if they're willing to lie about any person's death? I really don't think so. Ryukishi likes to use sins as a theme in his games. The difference is in Umineko it's not given to us. We have to figure it out.
