Fourteen Deadly Sins

Categories: Society
Author: Dorr

As if seven deadly sins weren’t bad enough, you can add seven more to list. No longer listing just lust, gluttony, avarice, sloth, anger, envy, and pride, the pope has now added “polluting, genetic engineering, being obscenely rich, drug dealing, abortion, pedophilia, and causing social injustice.” Was he right to do so? And what happens to famous works like the Canterbury Tales and Divine Comedy and the Tragical History of Doctor Faustus that all center around and focus on the original seven? What becomes of them?
