The Catholic Church’s power players convened the Council of Trent in the mid-1500s to determine how to impose their will for the next few centuries. The Council analyzed the coveting commandment and declared that thoughtcrimes “are more dangerous, than those which are committed outwardly.”48 Failing to engage in groupthink was worse than committing murder. Banking on the perpetual guilt these crimes ensure, the Council required that “all mortal sins, even those of thought” be confessed to the priests.49
Again, I say - Fuck the fucking fuckers! Fuck the Catholic Church!
