Nine Ways of Being an Accessory to Another
Persons Sin
(1) By counsel (2) By command (3) By consent (4) By provocation (5) By praise or flattery
(6) By concealment (7) By partaking (8) By silence (9) By defense of the ill done
And when I hear it said
that God is good and He will pardon us, and then see that men cease not from
evil-doing, oh, how it grieves me! The infinite goodness with which God
communicates with us, sinners as we are, should constantly make us love and
serve Him better; but we, on the contrary, instead of seeing in his goodness an
obligation to please Him, convert it into an excuse for sin which will of a
certainty lead in the end to our deeper condemnation.' -- St. Catherine of Genoa
