Девушка-Робин-Гуд: у богатых брала, бедным давала...

Well, the Vatican has been consistently losing its marbles, and here's another one:
The new mortal sins were listed by Archbishop Gianfranco Girotti at the end of a week-long training seminar in Rome for priests, aimed at encouraging a revival of the practice of confession - or the Sacrament of Penance in Church jargon.
And they are:
  • Environmental pollution
  • Genetic manipulation
  • Accumulating excessive wealth
  • Inflicting poverty
  • Drug trafficking and consumption
  • Morally debatable experiments
  • Violation of fundamental rights of human nature
Wow.

Accumulating excessive wealth is a mortal sin. So I guess The Holy Mother Church will be telling us just where that shady line of "excess" really lies.

Drug consumption is a mortal sin? A lot of these people are sick victims. Not too Christian-like to send them to hell now, is it?

And the last two are just plain fun -- you can fit pretty much anything into those two. And again, I am guessing the Vatican will be guiding us, the brain-dead flock, through the thorns of deciding just what exactly are those experiments and violations.

But wait! We ain't never touched no children, though:
He also named abortion and paedophilia as two of the greatest sins of our times. The archbishop brushed off cases of sexual violence against minors committed by priests as "exaggerations by the mass media aimed at discrediting the Church".
Sure, The Most Reverend, sure.

Lord, smite the Vatican for the morally debatable experiment of putting their heads up their own asses.
