Abstract

Is sin inherent in choice? Is sin simply a social construct or a function of limited resources? In this work of philosophical short fiction, there are 89 species in the Galactic Confederation of Intelligences and earth, as a way to protect its culture from being overrun by outside influence, has shut itself off from them. However a Jesuit Priest has decided to lock himself away with a copy of Encyclopedia of Sentient Species to try and better understand other species and to determine if there are other species that lack the ability to sin. In this pursuit, he painstakingly goes through and finds examples of species without the sin of Wrath, another without the sin of Lust, and so on. He is, however, unable to find any species without the sin of Pride.
