Sin has lost it’s value.

You feel there is no particular moral issue with dumping a few tons of battery acid and sewage into the nearest river?

I don't like arguing with people here, but I have to say, I really don't think mia meant that at all. I think our fellow FReeper was just indicating that if everything is a sin, including using carbon-based fuel, then nothing is a sin. So the Pope is cheapening the term.

Also, with all due respect, I think whatever point you meant to make is at odds with your tagline.

Nuclear radioactive contamination lasts for a very long time and spreads wherever the wind blows. On the other hand, I think the U.S. has done a good job of cleaning up polluted rivers. But there's nothing you can do, as far as I know, to clean up radioactivity. I may be wrong on that, and if so, I apologize.

Nah, nuking Saudi Arabia would be good for the environment and the planet. Gaia herself would thank us.

Or that crimes against nature are not sins, and to call them sins cheapens the term.

I have radioactive rocks under my HOUSE~!!

You probably do as well.

I've a fan that sucks the air from the pea gravel under the slab and vents it into the atmosphere.
