I am fairly sure everything else bothers me.

Mel Gibson doesn't bother me, either. Except by how dreamy he is.
Or is that not what you meant?
OK this is funny. Mea Culpa. I was unfair to lump certain people in with the web traddies.
Number 17 is mystical for me. May God bless your work.
I'm all about burning heretics, I think that one must be careful and take the time to gather up all of their heretical material to be destroyed with them. A rushed burning can lead to disasters (such as the recent finding of the very heretical "Gospel of Judas"). This also goes well with #8, censorship.
What are the rules for heretic burnings--does a bishop have to supervise, and how many opportunities is the condemned given to recant.
Another thing you should add to the list is hair-shirts--though that probably falls under the corporal mortification category.
AMDG,

So true, so true on #19 . . . the heartbreak is that the Dominicans did not burn enough . . .
Hairshirts! RT's right . . . the only problem with hairshirts in the past is that there has not been enough variety in style to coordinate with different events/seasons/moods.
Um . . . does cashmere count?
