Seven Deadly Sins 2.0



As you've probably have heard, this last week a Vatican official updated the seven deadly sins for the new millenium “due to the phenomenon of globalization”. The all-time-favourites such as Greed, Lust, Price etc still stands, but the Catholic church felt a few more was needed as a reality check to priests “not sufficiently attuned to some of the real evils in our world.” Gotta keep up with the wild and wicked ways of globalization and web 2.0..

The New York Times reports on the 7 new ones, easy printable into a clip-n-savable list, so with no furhter adue, here is what (also) gets you fried for eternity in the 21th century:

1. “Bioethical” violations such as birth control
2. “Morally dubious” experiments such as stem cell research
3. Drug abuse
4. Polluting the environment
5. Contributing to widening divide between rich and poor
6. Excessive wealth
7. Creating poverty

So I guess snacking on those crispy fried stem cells straight from the styrofoam container on your 24k gold sofa with your favourite pigdog whilst on acid is out of the question as of now...
