Plotki i oszczerstwa jako grzechy języka w nauczaniu papieża Franciszka

Abstract

The sins of the tongue are present in human life. They are most visible in gossip and slander, although they can also be seen in telling half-truths, lies, slander or excessive speech. The issue is very broad and occurs in every time and place, where people live and have relationships with each other. The Holy Father Francis exposes, above all, gossip and slander. Delving into his homilies delivered at the House of Saint Martha, you can see how he shows these sins in the context of considering God's Word during the celebration of the daily Eucharist. The purpose of this article is to show how great a spiritual threat sins of the tongue pose. Pope Francis makes strong comparisons just to show how much the sins of language negatively impact interpersonal communication. The article shows how the Pope's teaching corresponds to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
