Responding to the recent announcement by the Catholic Church of seven brand new sins, the Southern Baptist Convention today announced their own list of “Sins For A New Millennium.”

“All who share in the fellowship of believers are called to communion together,” said Dr. Frank S. Page, president of the SBC since 2006.

“The Southern Baptist church is willing to consider all divinely inspired ideas, even those originally espoused by unholy, fallen servants of the blood-stained Whore of Babylon.”

The two lists share a few sins in common — namely, abortion, contraception, and “pollution,” which many prominent Southern Baptists have recently decried in attacks on climate change skepticism.

The other items on the Southern Baptist list, however, may prove more divisive, as they include “speaking in tongues,” “being poor,” “liking Mary a little too much,” and “science.”
