Title: Vatican lists new sins, including pollution

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Thou shall not pollute the Earth. Thou shall beware genetic manipulation. Modern times bring with them modern sins. So the Vatican has told the faithful that they should be aware of "new" sins such as causing environmental blight.

The guidance came at the weekend when Archbishop Gianfranco Girotti, the Vatican's number two man in the sometimes murky area of sins and penance, spoke of modern evils.

Asked what he believed were today's "new sins," he told the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano that the greatest danger zone for the modern soul was the largely uncharted world of bioethics.

"(Within bioethics) there are areas where we absolutely must denounce some violations of the fundamental rights of human nature through experiments and genetic manipulation whose outcome is difficult to predict and control," he said.

The Vatican opposes stem cell research that involves destruction of embryos and has warned against the prospect of human cloning.

Girotti, in an interview headlined "New Forms of Social Sin," also listed "ecological" offences as modern evils.

In recent months, Pope Benedict has made several strong appeals for the protection of the environment, saying issues such as climate change had become gravely important for the entire human race.

Under Benedict and his predecessor John Paul, the Vatican has become progressively "green."

It has installed photovoltaic cells on buildings to produce electricity and hosted a scientific conference to discuss the ramifications of global warming and climate change, widely blamed on human use of fossil fuels.

Girotti, who is number two in the Vatican "Apostolic Penitentiary," which deals with matter of conscience, also listed drug trafficking and social and economic injustices as modern sins.

But Girotti also bemoaned that fewer and fewer Catholics go to confession at all.

He pointed to a study by Milan's Catholic University that showed that up to 60 percent of Catholic faithful in Italy stopped going to confession.

In the sacrament of Penance, Catholics confess their sins to a priest who absolves them in God's name.

But the same study by the Catholic University showed that 30 percent of Italian Catholics believed that there was no need for a priest to be God's intermediary and 20 percent felt uncomfortable talking about their sins to another person.

You are going to think this is crazy and I do to, although it seems some of the craziest ideas have some truth to them but from what I have gathered, this idea of a one world government, would also lead to a one world religion and the religion would be the worshipping of the environment.

If you need evidence that religion is a man made mass control device designed to keep the elite ruling class in power, look no further. How can a man just all of a sudden decide to write new sins? I thought Holy Law was supposed to be devine. Come to find out any asshole in the Vatican can just decide to make up new rules as we go.

Word.

But I find it all too easy to look at Pope and UN and say "ooooh One World Government soon!" :laugh:

We have enough people fooled by zee Golden Calf anyway....


Why do you need a one world government when country's governments co-operate already?

Why do you need a one world religion when world opinion can and is swayed even more effectively by a paradigm of media, religion, spin, government speak and culture ?


But what about the anti-christ and the rebulding of Solomon?

IMO, the "anti-christ" is a philosophical idea...its a battle within and without yourself that has been happening day to day, since the dawn of time, its the idea that knowing that what you know, having worked so far through your life discerning what is good and bad in the inner and outter world, you would throw it all away........
.....having known God, would you then actively ignore and disown him and allow yourself to be a vehicle of blasphemy?

Think about it, the idea behind the anit-christ is he will dominate the physical realm and shall therefore work top-down to oppress the inner spiritual life, to make you forget and ignore the Godhood in you and only see god in the representation of the physical...everything that matters is then only considerable in the physical realm and everything else has no bearing and is not important. By controlling the physical, what is important is only what they tell you is and our own physical urges (greed, want, egotism, desire) take priority over the infinite sea of existence within, because they are all that is important. The warning with Revelations is that all this shit is intensifying...


People in this modern day and age have made the anit-christ into a neat little story, they have made movies out of it (End of Days, etc) in movies people can see the bad guy (Satan) and they can see the good guy (Arnie) when infact its much more personal than that... Satan's origin of power does not stem from the physical realm of mankind, it actually only resides within, its only because you allow it to manifest in the physical, so seeing Satan walking around New York fucking women and murdering muthafuckers is reinforcing the idea that evil exists without in the physical, when ifact it's origin is within you the muthafucker sitting there watching the movie, knowing that now you can do something about. Instead if you didn't know you would walk away with the subconsciously implanted Hollywood fear.   


 What I say is true..because if people would bother to feel any understanding towards themselves, other people or celebrities for that matter(who instead we just laugh at and degrade for their own personnal demons) , you would understand that nothing physical will make you happy if you are not already happy within yourself.

I disagree.  I used to go to a Catholic school back in my 5th-9th grade years, my parents are Catholic, most of my family and friends are Catholic and they are the most casual religious people I know.  My feeling is that the smaller the religion, the more fanatics it has.

Yeah, I think that too. They AIN'T even CLOSE to some religions out there. They really laid back. You ain't Catholic, you ain't Catholic. They don't trip over it. They don't preach they shit to try an convert the whole got damn hood. Lol. Just my thoughts..:-\

Catholism is probably in the minority here in the midwest. Most of my friends are Protestant or Lutheran. I was raised Catholic casually, but my dad told me about his days at a Catholic private school. Nuns whooping the shit out of the kids and telling them their non-Catholic friends are going to hell. My mom is Protestant and she never told me about anything like that.

Those "traditional" Catholics (the Pat Buchanan/Mel Gibson types) definitely worry me.  However, in the northeast, most of the Catholics I've met (particularly the Irish-Americans) are some of the nicest people.  Actually, most Irish Catholics I've known are pretty liberal, precisely the opposite of the traditionalist types.

On the other hand, I generally find Catholicism to be pretty messed up, moreso than even Baptism (and I live around Baptists now; can't stand those fuckers).  Whenever I hear those evangelical types talking about how much they hate Catholicism, I can almost sympathize.  There was a time when Catholics were just about the least sympathetic people in the world.

Hey over fiend aka Australian bastard this word co-operation is a whitewash, it's not co-operation it's integration. I was watching a news affairs programme called Newsnight in the last day and it was indicative of the way in which they aren't even trying to hide their true faces anymore. I should hasten to add that this woman could just be a useful idiot but she was representing one of the environmental groups. Her genius idea to solve the evil carbon, is to introduce a carbon quota per person and the host sarcastically said oh so you are for a powerful state are you? and she said well I feel it's important to compel people because they won't do it voluntarily. Then when asked but how are you going to ensure that the chinese are heeding the same controls as the brits for example?  she replied, well we need international standards to be introduced. Right there, she is calling for a world government aka world dictatorship whether she realises it or not and under the pretext of saving the poor earth. Let's not get this twisted amigo, they pulled the wool over the Europeans eyes in the creation of the European Union it was insisted that it was only a benevolent trading block but now fast forward 50 years and the E.U has ignored democratic wishes and is instead via the European constitution creating the final frameworks for a European body to govern Europe. As if that was not insane enough, David Milliband the labour shill has "suggested" that African nations should join the European Union. The Uinon destroys the sovereignty of the nations, it destroys firewalls, it renders the members as slave states.

As has been said by Turf Hitta, you can tell how deliberate and systematic this all is when the Pope of all people, suddenly turns up the heat on people also. The more I think about it, the more I can see this lunacy of a mother earth religion coming true. As far as the U.N are concerned, they were formed by the military industrial complex, yet they call the soldiers "peace keepers" they are an unaccountable military regulatory of this global government. When I said this coming world government part of the infrastructure at least, has been in place for some time but it seems like they are now announcing it boldly. Incrementally little by little, we have slipped deeper and deeper into quick sand and ultimately the only thing that might have a chance of breaking this, is the fallout/violence when the sum of all parts is exacted.

You see unlike you I read and understand. I am not taken with little catch phrases I apply just a little bit of critical thinking and in the first paragraph alone if you knew anything about the programme before trying to attempt a dismissal of it, you would know it's an english programme.   Therefore trying to attempt to suggest that I copied from something Ron Paul had said, back fires completely. When you have learnt to crawl, then you can attempt to walk, then when you have done that, you can start on simple jig saws and then maybe you can attempt to play checkers. The likelihood of that happening is equal to me become a chess grand master but don't let that stop your mindless petty attempts at belittling views expressed by me.

I was with Obama before the catch phrases... Because his change I can believe in...

On the Vatican... as a actual Catholic, I think it good they update their message and they need to adress the earth. We as a religion are the oldest and largest Christian religion, and the pope has almost 2 billion that listen to him. John Paul II was very passionate on this issue and leave it to Benedict to take it to another level... lol. He did stay conservative with the no genetic sin now, but that's expected.

I don't understand how the Catholic Church stands on this one government theory. Look at history and to say the least this is something the pope would get killed over by his own German brothers. History has put a microscope over the pope, so for him to do anything of the sort would cause people te leave the Catholic Church is droves. Maybe the pope thinks global warming is important because he saw the Al Gore movie and was moved.

Do you have any idea what those environmental lobbyist and their groupies plans would amount to and not just in terms of the global government, I am talking about the direct ramifications. Let's not get this twisted Michael Meacher the former environment minister for labour was on television during a global warming |debate" said we have gone 5% of the way so far towards addressing this problem we need to go another 80%" a 16 fold increase on efforts to "tackle the problem" do you have even the slightest idea of the ramifications should they get their way?
As for that low life Al Gore, do you know the size of his home and what it costs to heat it? I will give you some figures since you won't bother to look into it, it costs 20 times the average u.s home to heat his and yet that fucker is saying oh we must stop evil energy wastage give me a break.

Rockefeller said, "we will have world government whether we like it or not". What he is saying is actually true. The question is what type of world or form of world government will we allow it to be. We already have a global government of sorts and im not talking about just the UN, its the banks, the intelligence community, the military industrial complex and our global integrated market...whether or not this was an inevitability of world capitalism or not, barriers between nations have gradually been broken down, economically, socially, militarily, politically,etc. I dislike alot of facets of this loose system of global governance but also, I agree with that woman. We need an international consensus on emissions, the environment, pollution. Now saying that this is going to furthure promote World Government is not far fetched, who knows what could happen at the end of the rainbow?  But to single out one thing like a worldwide civil concern for the environment projected onto an international scale and pin the blame for centralisaition of world power on that is unfair and dosn't make sense in regards to the broader reality.

Australia just voted for a government whose election promise was to ratify the Kyoto Protocol and the government has. I currently believe in the UN, the UN does so much good for people in the world. All is corruptable, all conditioned things are impermanent, however, the UN's ambition is not and never was for world government, the UN is just a gathering of nations where disputes can be heard. It only starts to look like a World Government when you put it in context of the international banking system, the global market, etc. But if you look at the UN itself, it is actually geared against alot of these other facets of the world governance system.
Checks and balances.

We need an international consensus on pollution and emissions and you don't need a world government just for that. What we have in place now will do just fine.

I remember back to the early 90s in Australia, nobody gave a flying fuck for pollution, the Green Party was considered totally nuts and radical, now former members of the Greens are in government (Peter Garett, former Midnight Oil rock band frontman). This is not all just a systematic move towards world government,  more people are just starting to have a concern. At the end of the day, I am also cynical of what will transpire on the international stage, but I am also optimistic at least with my own government and the private organisations. Many of yall don't know that STEVE IRWIN was a big contributer to GREENPEACE, damn right Steve was all about saving the animals and the environment, his GREENPEACE ship the Steve Irwin, has been keeping the fucking Japs from killing whales in the Pacific. There is alot of little things going on that reflect a growing concern amongst people with what they contribute to the environment and this concern is being reflected on the international stage.

What can we do to make the world better? More power? Less power?

I believe we need to focus on individuals and individual consciousness, if the average person's independent thought is expanded and their spiritual growth strenghtened...we will be fighting the winning battle and the particulars will follow.

Environmental concerns are real, I am not bashing people concerned about the environment and you are right world government exists but in a more covert form there are still vestiges of freedom. However it's like the Twilight Zone when you read history and see that it's repeating itself, that people are sleep walking into totalitarianism as a means of solving the problem. It's insane to think that people have become accepting of biofuels despite it driving an already toppling economy to the point where people are using their credit cards to pay for food. It's insane to think that people are accepting of food shortages when you only have to take a step back and realise how this is going to lead to mass starvation in the third world. The difference this time, is that the totalitarian system is masquerading itself as something loving and caring. The U.N has lots of good people within it's midsts but the organisation itself is the acceptable fact of global military. The fact is though the same fucks that run so many other systems, run the U.N to, it was the U.N that imposed oil for food which just "accidentally" killed a million or so. It is the U.N who according to this informative yet gatekeeping article http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/7395411/deadly_immunity/, it's the U.N who accidentally give infected batches to poor people in the third world http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2004/mar/04031101.html
http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2004/mar/04031101.html, it's the U.N whose troops have systematically raped children in Sierra Leone.


This idea that we can have a right wing or left wing global government is a bunch of bullshit it;s a false choice. Even if the people running the global government were angels, power corrupts and global power would have been stalin's wet dream. What happens 2 years 5 years down the line? when an evil dictator becomes installed into power, it will be too late to look for a firewall then.

So what can we do to make the world better? More power? Less power?

I believe we need to focus on individuals and individual consciousness, again like what Buddha for one said, if the average person's independent thought is expanded and their spiritual growth strenghtened...we will be fighting the winning battle and the particulars will follow.


you must be the change you wish to see in the world

Thanks bro but I am not one of those fake fuck politicians who can portray myself as self righteous. Therefore in the fake world of politics and people's delusionary ideals of how a politician should behave, I would fail. By the way there is nothing wrong with having a dream I wish we did live in a utiopian society. I wish that we did not live in a matrix, I wish things were how I perceived them when I was hmm 16 because all of my paradigms have been shattered. It's amazing once you escape the controlled thought of political party encapments and of the sound bite news, just how different the world really is. The article I posted from rollingstone by the way is extremely powerful but it illustrates a conscious or unconscious brainwashing. I can't believe for one moment that with the numerous scientists at their disposal that the U.N would not be checking the vaccines. It's seems like there is a deliberate attempts to demonise the U.S and once again use them as the scapegoat while apologising for the actions of the U.N.

From my point of view though, it seems like they are just a different head of the same dragon. It's as fake and engineered and as contrived as Obama supposedly pitting himself against the evil neocons but then you find out that his advisors is one of the most evil neocons you could possibly imagine. It's like saying to someone don't consume rat poison it's dangerous, here, have some aspartame instead. The difference being that the latter takes time to take effect, is slowly killing you so it doesn't raise alarm instead of instantly dying when consumed. The only answer to government is less government, less beaurocracy, a greater informed public and like you rightly quoted from Gandhi, freedom comes from within ones self to.
