New Word Wednesday #13

Simony
– noun
– the making of profit out of sacred things

I looked up this word after watching The Borgias. I swore I was only going to start one new cable series - Camelot - but thanks to my MIL I am hooked. It was on while Chunky and I were over at their house the other day and I immediately came home to look up if the events were true. We Catholics have some nasty skeletons in the closet. Good Gravy.
