[Oppugnant]

Yes, thats right, The Vatican has officially updated the Seven Deadly Sins to accommodate for the 21st century.
They are now:
Polluting
Genetic Engineering
Obscene Riches
Taking Drugs
Abortion
Pedophilia
and causing Social Injustice

Discuss.

[Oppugnant]

Nice spelling of Deadly. Idiot.

[p0psZ]

We've come a long way in 1500 years.

[Warrickneff]

I agree with most of those. In fact, the only one I don't really agree with is genetic engineering. While taking drugs could be considered borderline, I don't really support it enough to bother disagreeing. Ha.

But hell, I could really use some obscene riches right now.

Damnit, they just HAD to put genetic engineering on there. No president is going to get the Catholic vote if he endorses stem cells, and it just means we're farther away from it.

Not that one would before this... but, meh.

[Samen]

I liked the old ones better, because they weren't about being PC, they were things that were sinful and could very easily kill you or others.

Pedophilia doesn't neccesarily kill, and genetic engineering has yet yo kill even a single person.

They just Christfailed.

[dELtaluca]

Ok, is it just me or is the riches one incredibly hypocrytical considering how rich the vatican is?

Oh goodness, I'm glad I don't follow the Catholic Church and all their made up rules. People need to read the Bible to see exactly what God wants from us and doesn't want, he's a compassionate God and knows we are of the flesh, and will sin. No matter what horrible things we've done, God will always take us back, if we be so willing to come back to him.

The Catholic's, some at least, pray to the various Saints and the Blessed Mother, which is warned against in the Bible, "Pray to God and not the hosts of heaven." (something to that extant.) I'm sure they'll still be saved, but I totally disagree with the majority of the Catholic Church.

(Sorry for offending any Catholics, we still worship the same God, see you up there in Heaven someday)

Illegal drugs or prescription/legal drugs or both.

If prescription/legal drugs, I wonder how the pope is going to survive once he gets older (that's if he doesn't want to be strapped to a life-support machine).

I'm guessing it's the illegal kind.
Otherwise there's gonna be alot of devout Catholics stopping their meds and dying.

Then they'd be one step closer to being the Church of Scientology.

[Kuro]

Did the Vatican just make up some new rules?

Well, I suppose it's no different to Dante, I guess.

If I were Christian, I wouldn't listen to either of them.

Not applicable, since people developing genetic engineering aren't Catholic, and if they are they should find a new job.

Hypocrital.

Too broad.

Eh, I have no thought on this. Personal choice, or some shit.

They are now:
Polluting

Everybody wants to minimise pollution.

Genetic Engineering

Religious fundamentalism shouldn't impede the progress of science.

Obscene Riches

Like the Catholic church has never amassed obscene riches.

Taking Drugs

It is up to the individual whether they consume drugs.

Abortion

Same as above.

Pedophilia

Lol, coming from the Catholic Church!

and causing Social Injustice

Caused by their evil ideology which crippled Europe socially in the Middle Ages.

[ThePretenders]

The Vatican need its own Ten Commandments:

1. Thou shalt not mislead.
2. Thou shalt not instill fear.
3. Thou shalt not distort history.
4. Thou shalt not condemn Harry Potter books.
5. Thou shalt not stand in the way of science and progress.
6. Thou shalt not amass huge wealth from congregrations.
7. Thou shalt not influence governments in thy continent, especially Rome.
8. Thou shalt not tell Africa not to use condoms which would combat AIDS.
9. Thou shalt not provide shelter for Nazi war criminals on the list.

And my favourite commandment....

10. Thou shalt not rape little kiddies.

Is it a sin to punctuate your sentences?
