The Forgotten Sin (4 min read)
Why eating will send you to hell. Eternal hell.

Disclaimer:
I do not question (nor have any interest in, for the sake of this pathetic imitation of an article) the existence of your one and true God.
He’s there. He loves you. He wants you to eat crackers and drink wine in order to reach paradise. He doesn’t want you to kill and murder (but Crusades are fine). He’s got a plan to exterminate humanity in at least 7 different ways. Hates science because only nerds like science. Almighty, vindictive, easy to piss off, mild to intense voyeur.
He’s still your good ol’ Javeh.
Nobody will question your faith. I really couldn’t give less of a shit.
We’ve all (maybe, or maybe not) been blessed (hmmm…) with the luck of having Truly Christian friends. A rare and endangered breed of individuals who behave, think and avoid masturbation by the word of God and his son Jesus Christ.
These people made part of their own, intimate beings values like compassion, charity, forgiveness, sincerity and utter, continuous ballbreaking.
These Sons of a Blessing may or may not go to church. May or may not behave how the Bible thought them, may or may not truly give a damn about Jesus and God and his instructions.
The point is they declare it. They openly state being True Practicing Christians, TPCs.
And that is a logic-binding agreement. For when you state to be something, and nobody can prove the opposite, you can’t NOT be that thing, correct?
Everybody following me? Let’s move on then.
Now, as every social club, the Catholic Church created a set of rules those guys who wanted to chill in churches (easily some of the richest and most beautiful places in the world back three or four centuries ago) had to follow, which they called the Ten Commandments.
They also created, like every social club in history, a set of prohibited behaviours that if committed would translate in immediate and definitive expulsion from the club (read, church) itself.
They called those The Seven Deadly Sins.
“Theologically, a mortal or deadly sin is believed to destroy the life of grace and charity within a person and thus creates the threat of eternal damnation. “
Catechism of the Christian Church nn.1856
Eternal damnation. Funny guy, this Yehowah.
