In the [[Catholic Church]] calumny, detraction and slander are sins against justice and mercy and the goodness of God. When they result in serious, permanent and irreparable damage to others, they constitute a [[mortal sin]] which deprives the calumniator, detractor, and slanderer of all sanctifying grace, placing the guilty sinner in danger of eternal damnation to [[hell]], if they do not repent and seek to actively repair as much as humanly possible all of the damage they have cruelly caused, and do everything within their power to restore the dignity and honor of the particular individual or group or community they have harmed.<ref>[http://scborromeo.org/ccc/p3s2c2a8.htm#2475 Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) Part Three, Section Two, Article 8, sections III-VI, numbers 2475-2513 (scborromeo.org)]
