    Ok so parring off the "new 7 deadly sins" thread the old sins are

    Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.

    Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.

    Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.

    Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.

    Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.

    Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.

    Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.



    So which of the 7 deadly sins are you most guilty of, Are you Greed and like nothing better than counting your pennys- or are you pride and hate to admit your ever wrong?

    Id have to say myself i am Envy, i always want what other people have:D But hey who doesnt ha ha, Though i must say i have some Anger inside me too so it varies between the two:)

    So What sin are you most guilty of?

    Probably Sloth followed by wrath.

    Probably envy mixed with a little bit of sloth.

    Used to be lust but sloth has well and truly destroyed that. Masturbation- like sex but with none of the problems.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,041 ✭✭✭Havermeyer


    All of them also. The catholic church is full of hypocritical, bling-bling hoarding wasters anyway. They haven't got a ****ing clue what's going on? If we are all meant to be humble and all that, why the hell do THEY drive around in mercedes pope mobiles, have an unbelievably over the top 'palace' (pretty much) to live in etc. They don't favour electing a young-ish pope who would possibly be more in touch with the modern times than the half dead goons they usually elect.

    Please excuse the hostility, but the church just winds me up something rotten.
