Irresponsible reporting causes red faces at the Vatican
Alternative Title: Catholics In The Picture
In a rushed update to the list of seven deadly sins that the Vatican released previously, a new sin was added. And it now seems that the Vatican Press Office is in turmoil. Too late to stop the release it was discovered that the new sin was introduced due to irresponsible reporting.
It seems that the Vatican picked up on a news report about a camera that could see through clothes, and then prepared an edict that using the camera for gratuitous pleasure was the eighth sin. Linking the camera story to the recent distribution of a misleading picture of nuns, the Vatican saw this as ample evidence that 'the devil’s picture box' must be banned.

5. Contributing to widening divide between rich and poor
6. Excessive wealth
7. Creating poverty
Pope Benedict XVI wiser, but pictured here obviously happy that his modesty will be maintained.
