sin and sin again

[ghini]

The vatican just released a list of seven "social sins"

1. "Bioethical" violations such as birth control
2. "Morally dubious" experiments such as stem cell research
3. Drug abuse
4. Polluting the environment
5. Contributing to widening divide between rich and poor
6. Excessive wealth
7. Creating poverty

Um, i think they are pretty guilty of number 6 themselves.

Apparently covering up for priests who sodomize children is still ok with Jesus though...

At least there's #4?

so wait. MAN decides sin now? where in the Bible does it say "Though Shalt not take birth control." God forgive me if it does somewhere and I just proved what a bad Christian I am, but COME ON!

I effing hate Catholics. Sorry if you are one, but I think if you are, you hate them too. :)

Also, 5 and 7.

I think most of their excessive wealh lately has gone to paying for sexual abuse lawsuits. They've had to sell off chuches, monestaries and schools, and are still expecting to go bankrupt in certain places.
