The Backbiting Tongue
Sins of the Tongue
By Fr. Belet
Originally written in French in 1870, Fr. Belet wages war against one of the worst sins of his time - backbiting - better known to us as detraction (telling the faults of others without cause.) Most of us do not realize how evil this sin is. In fact, many of us don’t think it’s a sin at all. After ruining someone’s reputation, or satisfying our anger (and yes, hatred) by spewing out every bad thing we can say about someone, we justify ourselves by saying, "Well, it’s true!" Many theologians and philosophers are quoted. 78pp, softcover
