03/12/08 - Is The A Special Place In Hell For Some Wealthy Greenwichites


The Vatican Says: Economic injustice, which has left the
poor even poorer and the rich richer

will send obscenely rich straight to hell.

QUOTE:

Then said Jesus unto his disciples: Verily I say unto you, that a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. Matthew 19:23, 24

Obscene wealth 'can go to Hell'

STORY:

The seven deadly sins have grown to at least 14 after the Vatican updated its 1400-year-old list of the worst moral failures to reflect the changing times ...

....
Quoting from Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, reported that certain actions were so unholy that they needed to be deemed as “mortal sins” – not the less serious “venial sins”.

The man in charge of examining confessions and indulgences for the Vatican, Monsignor Gianfranco Girotti, told the Vatican newspaper that priests should be aware of the “new” sins....

....The other “new” mortal sins included taking or dealing drugs and causing poverty or the “excessive accumulation of wealth by a few”, Monsignor Girotti said. According to the Catholic Church, “immediately after death the souls of those who die in a state of mortal sin descend straight into Hell.”

Pope Gregory the Great listed the original seven deadly sins in the 6th Century.

Those were: Pride, Envy, Gluttony, Lust, Anger, Greed and Sloth.

You know what? It’s time for the Pope to STFU. What an a**hole. I want this do-gooder jackass to define “excessive wealth”.... This coming from a guy who takes a vow of poverty and lives in a palace.... Live in squalor and THEN make this pronouncement.... The Pope can go to hell.
Screw the Church!


It is a shame that we must be told that these activities are sinful, but most people never consider the ramifications of such deeds.

In issuing this list, the Vatican is asking that we become more conscious of what we chose to do in our world.the way we act upon the world and upon each other. Regardless of your religion, certainly you can see the benefit to this. If you fail to do so, it does not surprise me that you also fail to see the sinfulness in the social sins as given by Bishop Girotti.

If you are a Catholic, you will agree with the views of the Church. If not, you will probably be against the Church. That's the way is it and always has been.

It's going to be fun to watch how people will be freaking out about the money thing. Who really has obscene amounts of money? Certainly not half of those who will be defending it.

I suppose it's something we all strive for I guess.

It is clear that the Vatican is targeting those who are selfish with their riches, not those who are trying to make a difference.

The Vatican is right
when it comes to matters of becoming obscenely wealthy, causing poverty and social injustice. Hopefully, some of the obscenely wealth of Greenwich will step up to the plate and help some of the poorest and weakest of Greenwich Society.
