V. The Proliferation of Sin
1869
Thus sin makes men accomplices of one another and causes concupiscence,
violence, and injustice to reign among them. Sins give rise to social
situations and institutions that are contrary to the divine goodness.
“Structures of sin” are the expression and effect of personal sins.
They lead their victims to do evil in their turn. In an analogous sense, they
constitute a “social sin.”144
