Eh, most of these seem to tie in with original sins. Pedophilia=Lust, Insanely rich=Greed. The love of money has always been sinful.

Religion, at its very core, is inherently good. I can sum it up in one short sentence:

I think people are making a mountain out of a mole hill. I believe the Vatican is just trying to bring these problems to forefront of the world, and make us aware that we are hurting humanity. Isn't that what most religions teach? To treat all of God's creations with respect. These are some serious problems we face in our world today, and I don't see any problem with the Catholic Church trying to make us aware of them.

If the Bible says that Gods eye is on the sparrow, wouldn't God be opposed to air polution? I mean shouldn't all religions agree that air polution and drug adiction are sinful? And the obscenely rich part could easily be tied back to Greed which is one of the seven deadly sins. I mean being rich in itself it not a sin, but when you don't at least use some of that money to help others, then that is a sin.

THANK YOU, finally someone grasps the point of what these teachings are. Not necesserally new sins just bringing them up to bring to light to them. Trying to remind people of the immoral behavior in the world.

I didn't read the article mind you, but how did they come up with new sins? Did God speak to the Pope, or did they pull paper with bad things written on them out of a hat?

In Catholicism's defense there are things in scripture that back what they do.

Theres also other stuff that contradicts NOT THE FAITH, but the higher ups.

And for someone that said "Christianity" and Catholicism aren't the same thing, and talking about how the Catholic Church believes in all these doctrines. Your right, BUT, to be fair Protestants have things like the Purpose Driven Life/Church/etc, books by Charles Stanely, Joel Osteen, etc, etc, that you guys take as seriously as us Catholics take the Pope's word.

I assume by teachings, you mean anything on morality in the Bible. I'm sure that the people who wrote that made it broad enough that you could interpret it to fit into modern terms. Jon Stewart did something on it when the Vatican gave us driving morality rules.

Um so by this i assume 51%(Or more) of the worlds pedophiles are preists? Link or some sort of evidence supporting this statement, please.

And these sins only apply to catholics and maybe some christians. Plus they are just from doctrine.

It's getting late over here and im tired. Im going to end with this. When I say these sins are stupid, im generelizing. There are a couple that should be there, but most shouldn't. Forcing rules on people and telling them they are going to hell if they don't follow them is wrong. Like pollution. My friends car does 17 MPG. Does that mean he's going to hell?

I know people who are rich but have worked hard, very hard for it. Does that mean they are going to hell?

A friend of mine is on birth control, does that mean shes going to hell?

This one fits in with "Morally dubious'' experiments such as stem cell research. My friend, who I wont disclose her name, her dad found out 2 weeks ago he had cancer and scientist around the world are looking for a cure for said cancer. Does that mean those scientist are going to hell?

There are 2 that are right. Creative poverty and pedophelia. Once again though, the Pope is being a hypocrit.

*And im not saying pedophilia is only commited by priest. I am, how ever saying there are many cases. Like the one church that was sued something like 400 million for pedophelia.

This is a bit rich coming from one of the organisations that has managed to cover up years and years of worldwide child abuse by its own members. Think they should put their own house in order before condemning the rest of us.

Polluting - Dark Ages? The church was the greatest contributing factor to the plague...

Genetic engineering - Doesn't this go against there whole creationism debate? Intelligent Design anyone?

Being obscenely rich - Isn't the church an obscenely rich organization?

Drug dealing - The spanish catholic church drug dealing scandals a few years back?

Abortion - God gave us free will but only to make our decisions based off the churchs ideals?

Pedophilia - This coming from the church? HAHAHAHAHA

Causing social injustice - They step into anything that goes against the churchs ideals, isn't that social injustice?

Someone really didn't think about these sins very well.

I guess liberalism has gotten a hold of the Catholic Church with pollution and being extremely rich as two mortal sins.

I believe Communism/Socialism to be less moral than Capitalism.

You offend God not only by stealing, blaspheming or coveting your neighbor's wife, but also by ruining the environment, carrying out morally debatable scientific experiments, or allowing genetic manipulations which alter DNA or compromise embryos

lol the science part really got me good. looks like scientists are yet-again going to be persecuted.

I guess I will go to Mars and establish the UAC. The Church cant touch me out there.

Hmm...wonder why the Catholic church suddenly decided to include pedophilia as a deadly sin...hmm...what could have possibly happened in recent years to make them present a strong stance against pedophilia...

Seriously though, this list is hilariously hypocritical. Being rich is a sin? Looks like the entire Catholic Church is going to hell then considering they own their own soverign city that's loaded to the brim with gold and other riches. And the science stuff is a complete joke.

I think it speaks volumes about the religion when you look at how many times the Church has retconned the religion and added stuff in on a whim. Remember a year or two ago when the Vatican suddenly declared that Purgatory no longer exists? Or remember back in the middle ages when the Vatican suddenly declared that a place called Purgatory existed?

The rich thing is taken from the bible im assuming.

When Jesus said its easier for a camel to fit through the head of an eye of a needle, than for a rich man to go to heaven.

What does it matter? Whatever sins they add, the Catholics still have 'confession'..."What's that? You committed adultery by lusting after and having protected sex with an obscenely rich pedophile who was also a murderer who littered by tossing the murder weapon into the nearby lake?....Well, ok...say 20 hail marys, 10 our fathers, 20 hallelujahs and you're home free. God Bless." Genius...what a bunch of geniuses the Catholics are :roll:

We can make that worse:

"What's that? You're a 400lb obscenely rich male genetic engineer who committed adultery by lusting after and having protected sex with an eight year old boy before killing him in a fit of rage and polluting the nearby lake with his dead body which you lazily disposed of, then lied about it in court and got the charges dropped? Also, a week later, because you were envious of your even richer neighbor's new vacation island you decided to open up an abortion clinic and deal drugs on the side to bring in more money?"

See, got all the bases covered in that version.
