A funny thing: there are also seven virtues - two sets of seven, actually, but I think you'll find that far fewer people are aware of them than are those who know the sins.

One thing I find rather amusing is that the Archbishop of Manila from 1974 - 2003 was Jaime Sin. In 1976, he was elevated to the rank of Cardinal, making him, in official RC terminology, "Jaime Cardinal Sin".

That's a good one, Jorjor!! I wonder if he lived up (or down) to his name

@carrierinyes, about that time, I was in a number of language classes with a Filipina exchange student; she and I go to be good (though not intimate) friends, and she had a lot to say about getting away from the Filipines' Catholic orthodoxy. She told me that the cathedral in Manila became known as the :"House of Sin" and that she was glad that the Americans' governance of the Filipines made English prevalent enough for her to enjoy the joke.

Great story Jorjor To protect the innocent - I won't name the city of a trusted doctor: Dr. Butcher. I'm not kidding.

Since you brought it up and we are interested to learn more, why don't you post a clip on the seven lively virtues?
