Bryce I am not sure what that means, but great try at redirecting what is an obvious problem with your faith into something meaningless.
Answer
Are you able to define "finite offenses"? If you try, you might run into difficulties.
For example, the news has just stated that a woman giving evidence in Court against a couple who sexually abused her years ago, has just committed suicide. This happened after she had given her evidence in Court. The Judge has issued a news black-out for the case to continue.
Now, how 'finite' were the crimes allegedly committed against this woman (assuming the couple are proven guilty)? The victim has been unable to continue living with herself. She is now dead.
Consider the case of the Australian DJ pranksters who phoned a London hospital pretending to be royalty (when the Duchess of Cambridge was receiving treatment.) One of the nurses who took that prank call later committed suicide. Compare the two situations. One crime was sexual abuse, the other was a joke. But two women were driven to suicide. What generational suffering will be experienced by those females families? How 'finite' were those respective offenses?
I cannot go on to answer your question until the matter of 'finite offenses' is settled.

Which one would be better to marry?
The future duke of Norfolk or a Lord who is a first cousin to the future King of England? If you marry the lord, you'll only be a lady but you will get closer to the Queen! but if you marry the future Duke, you will later on become a Duchess and inherit lots of land but you will not be a Windsor.
Answer
I'd opt for Henry Miles Fitzalan-Howard, the Earl of Arundel (1987-), a formula BMW race car driver, who enjoys skiing, hiking, and climbing the Alps, and who as the future Duke of Norfolk, is Britain's most eligible bachelor. Of course, a successful marriage is built on shared interests and compatibility.
I can't think of any male first cousins to Prince William who are Windsors who a) are old enough to marry, or b) who aren't already married. Viscount Althorp, Louis Frederick John Spencer (1994-) lives in Capetown, South Africa, and his family life could be charitably described as "dysfunctional".
P. S. -- A little research turns up two bachelors who are the sons of Diana, the Princess of Wales' sisters: George Edmund McCorquodale (1984), who attended Harrow and is supposedly a Prince Harry look-a-like, and the Honourable Alexander Robert Fellowes (1983-), who is a fourth year Classicist at Trinity College Cambridge and who also went to Eton College like Prince William and Prince Harry. Fellowes is the President of the Claret Club, an old Etonian Society, and in December 2006, he made the news for his role in a drunken drawl at the Bullindon Club.
(This answer, btw, is starting to sound like one of Dorothy Sayers' Lord Peter Wimsey novels.)
