Catholic Church adds seven new deadly sins

Excellent. Like they haven't been getting enough stick already. Changing the scripture again is really "following" the word of God. :rolleyes:
 
Fuck them. Genetic experimentation has been held back for years because of this attitude. Stem cell research could potentially grow new organs and restore functioning to Spinal Chord Injury patients - you know, like my father.

Find me the fucker that came up with that idea and I'll smash his spine with a sledgehammer - we'll see how eager he is to ban stem cell research then.

I have not the words to express my rage. Self righteous, pompous, sanctimonious assholes like this are the reason my father isn't alive today. These goddammed hypocrites are fine taking antibiotics, insulin, having surgery, and taking advantage of medical breakthroughs that have their roots in the illegal human dissections of the renaissance - a practice the Catholic Church condemned. Now they use that very medicine to artificially prolong life, because medical knowledge is "God's gift" or some shit. Bullshit. According to them all medical knowledge came from sinful and ungodly acts. At the same time they artificially prolong life they condemn any kind of birth control as being "against god's will." WHAT? It's ok to use medical practices based on sin to artificially manipulate life, but it's not ok to protect yourself from disease or unwanted pregnancy by using a simple bit of vulcanized latex?

Fuck them all, I hope they all suffer disease and injury that can be cured by the very science they are trying to destroy - I want them to spend years of suffering as they hear the doctors around them lament, "If only Stem Cell research had been allowed to progress...." "Stem Cell research shows such promise, but politicians and churches keep fighting it.." Let the suffer a long time so they can think about how many people they hurt, how many lives could have been saved, how many families could have had their father, mother, son, or daughter alive and well; how many people that could have walked again, or gotten of dialysis.

Let them all experience the full magnitude of the preventable suffering they have caused.

Allow me to paraphrase George Carlin "Religon takes in billions of dollars every year and pays no taxes. If I may be permited a small pun, Holy Shit!".

Yep, it's ridiculous. The catholic church is one of the richest private institutions in the world I'd fathom.

To blind_Io, I can see this brings up alot of emotions. I'm sorry my posting this brought up so much angst and bad feeling in you, I can imagine this a particularly touchy with what you've been through.
 
Soo I shouldnt take asprin if my head hurts. And anyone who drives is sinning because it is polluting the enviroment? :lol:

Of course.

God gave us immense amounts of brain power so we can live like cavemen.

:lol:
 
please find me the passage in the bible that says that genetic engineering is wrong and the part where god tells me that I need to be careful about the enviroment

It's not your fault. I have been pissed at the religious fuckwits for years for holding back research, but now I have a more personal and stronger hatred of them. You have no reason to apologize, you are only sharing information and information is never a bad thing.

Can I borrow a sledgehammer? Mine's in Utah.
 
No, the biggest sin is not bringing a can of gasoline with you.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT.
SERIOUSLY?! DID... Did they just seriously go there?!?!?! The same people that paid out the largest settlement in history for a sex abuse case?!?!?!

URGE TO KILL RISING!
 
I have to say a lot of this new deadly sins nonsense is bullshit. I am all for genetic research.

Although in defense of the Church, I will say that they do spend the vast majority of their money on humanitarian causes. Although they have wasted money on cunts like Mother Teresa.
 
....yeah, humanitarian causes like convincing everyone in Africa, the most AIDS-infected continent on the planet, to not use condoms. So instead they have sex with younger and younger children, hoping to get to them before they get infected, thus infecting them.

Yeah, they have done fantastic work there.

This one is a favorite, a Catholic Bishop is telling his parishioners that Europeans are trying to kill them with AIDS-tainted condoms: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20999747/
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2003/oct/09/aids - and here is the "HIV goes through latex" argument. Gotta love half-truths.
And the "Condoms encourage promiscuity" argument: http://www.thebody.com/content/art9091.html

Do I need to go on? There are tens of thousands of sources for this stuff in the popular press alone.

I got a kick out of this part:

The Times said:

The original offences and their punishments

Pride Broken on the wheel
Envy Put in freezing water
Gluttony Forced to eat rats, toads, and snakes
Lust Smothered in fire and brimstone
Anger Dismembered alive
Greed Put in cauldrons of boiling oil
Sloth Thrown in snake pits

Why what a loverly organisation to be a aprt of?........
 
As a Biologist, I have only one thing to say : see you all in Hell.
Seriously: what the hell were they thinking?!?
