Guilt. The Big G, the Catholic faith's greatest gift to humankind and its subspecies, psychiatrists ... well, I guess that's putting it a little too harshly; I've met a lot of Jews, and they seem to have just as hard a time of it as we do, and they've been around longer, so maybe it wasn't the Church's invention ... but I maintain it developed the concept more fully than anybody else; it was the Japan of guilt, taking somebody else's product and mass-producing it, refining it, fine-tuning it, optimising its performance and giving it a life-time guarantee.
