labor exploitation and low wages, "social sins"
The Catholic Church is updated, condemns the "social sins." Although not in the Bible, are committing acts of evil with new faces.
"Faced with new circumstances there are different ways to commit fouls." In this thesis are part of "social sins," which, according to the Catholic Church are not new violations, but an "update services as identified."
In this context, although none of the seven deadly sins, lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride, identified by Pope Gregory I in the sixth century-exposed directly to "create poverty" is a failure, yes greed relates to that unjust act.
Hugo Valdemar, spokesman for the archdiocese of Mexico, said that social sins are an "expansion of consciousness, are variations of the faults that exist, it should be understood that changing cultural circumstances, the sins have modifications. Today, in conditions of scarcity, for example, waste water is criminal, because we attacked ourselves, others and the future generations. "
added that poverty is generated in the context of greed, and exemplified: "pay low wages, may pay more, exploit workers and keep them in a situation unworthy of life is sin. "
turn, Josué Tinoco Amador, a professor and researcher at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana Iztapalapa, noted that many systems of government" not immune "to this lack, for" sufficient to confirm whether the Number of poor rises, either by the adoption of economic and social wrong, or approval of higher taxes and rising. But he said that many entrepreneurs make this sin to pay salaries "miserable" as well as politicians also sin to engage in corruption.
was in March 2008 that the Archbishop Gianfranco Girotti, apostolic Plenipotentiary Vatican expert on matters of conscience, told the newspaper L 'Roman Obsservatore the existence of social sins, which include bioethics violations, such as contraception and genetic research, polluting the environment, creating poverty, a widening gap between rich and poor to accumulate excessive wealth, and everything related to drug trafficking and consumption.
On this, José de Jesús Aguilar, parish priest of San Cosme and deputy director of Radio and Television of the Archdiocese of Mexico, said that around there is great sin "ignorance, because for many seems that such failures are social new, not so .
explained that "sin is anything that destroys the individual, partner, family, society and nature can not be said that the Catholic Church has invented more sins, but he is creating consciousness. If you damage a person's sin, even in the Bible is not kidnapping, drug trafficking and genocide, of course you have to draw the conclusion that there are ways in which it is updated, because the man can always commit acts of evil with new faces.
