There is a related sin that we see very often here on FR. There is a sort of voyeurism that involves a perverse sense of curiosity about things not directly related to our own salvation like being critical of authority and searching for anything that would support our position. It assumes a sort of greater knowledge based in pride that is used to criticize others from a position of false superiority. It is totally lacking in insight and seeks to denigrate the other.

What exactly is "our position"? And should not a good Catholic be concerned not only about his own salvation, but that of others, including Catholic authorities?
