Sinning is Contagious!

According to new fake scientific research from the Institute of Scientists Who Have Nothing Better To Do Than Come Up With Lame Solutions To Real Research Questions, sinning is contagious! The study finds that if you are a sinner, it is 100% likely that you have a friend or loved one who is also a sinner. This connection clearly shows that sinning must be contagious and is not, as once believed, a personal choice or a condition of birth.

"This sheds new light on the nature of sinning," says I.M. Wastingeverybodiestime. "Now that we understand the communal aspects of this disease, we might be able to create a vaccine that can prevent the transference of sin from one person to another."

In the meantime, the Institute recommends that we all hunker down and not associate with anyone else who might be a carrier of sin. "The less contact we have, the less likely we are to catch sin from someone else," says Dr. Dimbulb. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of redemption."

After the press conference, the members of the Institute retreated quietly into their own caves until such time as all sin had passed out of this world and the epidemic has passed. They haven't been seen from since.
