A new catholic sin: wealth

australianinvestor · Mar 10th, 2008, 02:47 AM

A news article reported that the catholic church added "obscene wealth" to its list of mortal sins.

I am not religious, and I'm sure that my opinion on wealth is well-known here, so I won't comment. I just thought some might find this news item interesting.

MJ and co, feel free to pull this post if you wish :-)
