....I forgot to also point out that it is very telling, to me, that the Catholic church decided to not include FEAR in their list of deadly sins.
Especially when you think of how much damage occurs in the world as a direct result of the FEAR of humans...fear fuels ignorance and hatred and panic.
Yet the Catholic Church did not see fit to include it in the list of deadly sins.
And it SHOULD be a Sin, because if you really trust in God, you shouldn't really fear anything BUT God, should you?
For a Christian to experience FEAR (of anything but God) is a demonstration of faith lacking, is it not?
No....the Catholic Church doesn't make FEAR a sin, because, obviously, FEAR of hell is the tool the Church uses to control people.
Such hypocrisy.
