Chapter 4, Mishna 1

What do we learn from the verse “And he shall do with the bull as he did with the bull of the sin offering”?
Does this mean the goats for idol worship follow the same laws as the bulls in how their blood is sprinkled and burned?
Why does the verse say “before the curtain of the sanctuary” for this offering, when that isn’t said about others?
Does it mean only some offerings are sprinkled before the curtain, or does it serve as a rule for all inner offerings?
Do the other sages agree with Rabbi Meir that a wrong thought in one step can ruin the whole offering, or only certain parts of the service?
If the blood of an inner offering was put on the outer altar, is the offering still valid?
Is there a distinction between applying the blood on the wrong altar versus in the wrong place on the same altar?
If intent was improper, such as thinking to eat it later than allowed, does it make the offering pigul even if the later acts were done correctly?
If the blood of an inner offering was placed on the outer altar — does that count as a valid application or is it completely disqualified?
If improper intent occurred during only some of the sprinklings, for example, one of the four, is the offering pigul or only invalid?
What lesson can we take away from these challenges to various rulings based on assumptions regarding the rulings of earlier sages?
