Treachery (Treason) was the ninth Circle of Hell. This last circle was dedicated to those people who betrayed their loved ones, friends, best friends, countries, cities, guests and even to their masters. It was also the place where Lucifer's real body was imprisoned.
Treachery (Treason) in its own right is wasteful to Life itself; it is more serious than the other previous sins due to the sinners' assumption of being able to claim absolute authority over any other living thing, including someone chosen by God. Satan acts as the extreme example of this, in that he thought he could rule better than God, leading to his betrayal. As such, the Traitors are committing a form of hubris against God, the worst of all, and are placed among the lowest circles (Violence, Fraud), which share in this form of power-assumption.

It is appropriate that obama's most corrupt court was the 9th Circuit Court - the synonym of circuit is circle

If people read Dante's Inferno it would help them understand sin better. Interesting books.
The 9th Circuit court and Obama makes strange sense.

I thought the 9th circuit court and 9th circle of hell was befitting!

Neither have I. So many books, so little time.

Audiobooks are a great way to 'read' a book while on the move and it isn't considered distracted driving yet!
