The interesting thing here is that it seems that not doing enough to help the poor is a sin.  Those responsible for contributing or doing nothing about the increasing gap between the rich and the have-nots will now have God to deal with.

Full story HERE.

VATICAN CITY - In olden days, the deadly sins included lust, gluttony and greed. Now, the Catholic Church says pollution, mind-damaging drugs and genetic experiments are on its updated thou-shalt-not list. Also receiving fresh attention by the Vatican was social injustice, along the lines of the age-old maxim: "The rich get richer while the poor get poorer."

He cited "violations of the basic rights of human nature" through genetic manipulation, drugs that "weaken the mind and cloud intelligence," and the imbalance between the rich and the poor.

aka Frank,

I am happy to see your time being devoted to religious issues. Let me suggest that if you spent as much time in the bible as spent seeking religious propaganda... you would personally benefit.




Jesus said, "Take heed that no one deceives you."

Matthew 24:4

Meow !

Being a little bit touchy there aren't we JBF ?

Frank is merely posting a true story about religion on the religious forum.

"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of needle than it is for a rich man to enter heaven", ring any bells ?

Or is that one the of the "words of god" you choose to ignore/not cherry pick from the bible to share with us on a regular basis ?

Is that why you appear so hostile ?

I know what you mean, BUT, to be honest, I didn't really seek it.  It was the first headline I saw in popular news at Yahoo where my email homepage is, and where I got the story.  I posted a few varied stories this morning on the site, all from the same block of stories at Yahoo.  I also put some value on "fun" in terms of judging overall benefit.

I also don't believe the Bible is the word of God, but I do appreciate your intention.

Frankly, Frank...

(Man!  I've been waiting a LONG time to say that!)::sgrin::

I find some of the new "deadly sins" a little vague. 

No genetic research?  What about the possibility of growing new organs?
What about curing cancer or viral diseases?  What about regeneration of tissue?
Genetics holds untold promise for mankind!

Obscenely rich?  How is that defined?  Of course Bill Gates is obscenely rich, but am I obscenely rich compared to a Chinese rice-picker?

So being a drug-dealer is now a sin?  Does that make all doctors sinners?  They deal drugs.

BTW - guess who is the most obscenely rich organization on the planet? 

The Vatican!  McDonald's is a far away second!

Who started Genetic Research? Well Rockefeller who funded the Nazi's. They are the same occult family, making the same claims Lucifer did in the garden of Eden.

The stuff they are doing today is just what the fallen Angels (and children) did before the flood.

 

3And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

 4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
 5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
 6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
 7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
 8All these are the beginning of sorrows.
 9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
 10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
 11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
 12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
 13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
 14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
 15When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
 16Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
 17Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
 18Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
 19And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
 20But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
 21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
 22And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
 23Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
 24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
 25Behold, I have told you before.
 26Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
 27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
 28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
 29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
 30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
 31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
 32Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
 33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
 34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
 35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
 36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
 37But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

LOL, I hear you on your last few posts, frankly (which is easy for a Frank).

How about this?  How about the "drugs" that were legal and widely used not that long ago, like hemp/marijuana?  What about cigarettes - are the companies and smokers now sinners.

Frank,

ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Romans 3:23

We don't need the Roman Religion to remind us that we ALL need Jesus and His sacrifice for sin.




Jesus said, "Take heed that no one deceives you."

Matthew 24:4

How about people who have been given morphine(opium) for pain ?

Are they sinners now ?

Apparently, God wants to add some specifics to the sin list ...

Had a Baptist preacher tell me one time, that smoking wouldn't send you to hell, it would just make you smell like you had been there.

Frank, I don't think God needs the Vatican's help on the sin list. I think he pretty well covered it in the Bible.

Until the Vatican can figure out a way to train their "religious men" to stop abusing children, then hiding the perpetrators, and.............   totally make restitutions for allying with the Nazis in the attempted destruction of the Jewish race, they should collectively shut their mouths, not tell anyone else how to live, and go back into  their collective closets so normal people can forget about and ignore them and their perverted ideas.
