The Seven Deadly Habits

Our project was about the 7 Deadly Sins, for example lust, gluttony,greed,laziness,wrath,envy, and pride. I learned about the 7 ways that you can sin which most people don’t even know about. Many people sin without even knowing and when they see our artwork they will realize what they have done wrong. Some facts that I learned were about greed. Greed is one of the 7 sins because us as humans want to be rich and have money, but some people want more than that, some people want to be able to have everything they want and show off to other people. I also learned that the 7 deadly sins also have another name, that being capital vices or cardinal sins. Some facts that I already knew were that pride was one of the most common sins that people make

The seven deadly sins, also known as the capital vices or cardinal sins, is a Western religious grouping and classification of vices. This grouping emerged in the fourth century AD and was used for Christian ethical education and for confession. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, a mortal or deadly sin is believed to destroy the life of grace and charity within a person. Though the sins have fluctuated over time, the currently recognized list includes pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth. There is a parallel tradition of seven virtues.

The cardinal sins are “sins that characterize fallen humanity,” according to orthodox Christianity and the Roman Catholic Church in particular (ReligionFacts). While the Bible does include lists of sins, none of these lists align with the traditional “deadly” sins known today; the list of seven cardinal sins were actually created in the fourth century by a monk named Evagrius Ponticus (ReligionFacts). After several revisions, a list of cardinal sins fell into more popular use when poet Dante Alighieri used them in The Divine Comedy (ReligionFacts). According to modern interpretations of the list, the seven sins are as follows:

The seven deadly sins are always view in a negative way. Well since they are considered sins I guess they will ways be viewed that way. Like Pride is the desire to be better than everyone and love only oneself. Wrath is to have uncontrollable feeling of hatred and anger. Greed is to have a very excessive or plundering desire and pursuit of wealth, status, and power. Gluttony is excessive desire for food, or its withholding from the needy. Sloth is the failure to apply your talents and gifts by being lazy. Lust is excessive thoughts or desires of a sexual nature. Envy is to be jealous of what someone or something you lack. But I think there is something good about the sins also. People never think about how

"The sins described don't seem like sins at all, even if one accepts the religious significance of the term. But they spring from thoughts and behaviors that, overtime become habits."(Benton TSDSOS) For example, Institutions create a mindset for students that push them to take the path of least resistance; and instead of using self denial and self esteem they choose self indulgence. These choices and sins that they indulge in have consequences that can create more unhappiness and difficult paths later down the road. The seven sins that are of topic are, the Sloth, Greed, Anger, Lust, Gluttony, Envy, and finally Pride. These seven sins are the troubling behavior that students succumb to.

These are three of the bible’s seven deadly sins that are ingrained in our society. Sins that our heroes are still fighting today.

Greed, Sloth, pride, lust, wrath, envy, and gluttony the seven deadly core sins. All of these sins are sadly sometimes a common occurrence in the human population. Day by day these occur all over the world in every corner of this earth these sins reside. This story will go over three things about the whole sinology, and those are how they are used in real life, the damaging effects that they cause, and its possible effects on society as a whole. This story will also be 7 paragraphs long not including this paragraph right here and at the end.

Gluttony When people think about Gluttony, they picture a fat slob. However, there are two different types of gluttony, which are gluttonies of delicacy and excess. The medieval's five ways of sinning by gluttony depicts this dichotomy of gluttony perfectly. These include, "eating and drinking too soon, too expensively, too much, too eagerly, and with too much fuss (Guinness 213). Gluttony has consumed our culture because we see it as the smallest of the seven deadly sins and most people do not even see gluttony as a sin!

The sins are subjective, meaning some sins may be considered more toxic than others. Each sin means something different and contributes variety to the term evil. The sins are pride; when one is vain and believes excessively in their own abilities, envy; to crave for another’s traits, status, abilities, or situation, gluttony; the desire to consume more food or drink than necessary, in turn harming another’s ability to be able to eat or drink, lust; the unreasonable hunger for sexual pleasure, wrath; one’s manifestation of anger instead of practicing patience, greed; the selfish desire for materialistic wealth or gain, and the last sin, sloth; one’s neglection of physical work. Each sin is practiced at varying levels and is viewed differently

- Envy - For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.

The "Seven Deadly Sins"', also known as the "Capital Vices" or "Cardinal Sins", are a classification of vices that were originally used in early Christian teachings to educate and instruct followers concerning (immoral) fallen man's tendency to sin. The Roman Catholic Church divided sin into two principal categories: "venial", which are relatively minor, and could be forgiven through any sacrament of the Church, and the more severe "capital" or "mortal" sins, which, when committed, destroyed the life of grace, and created the threat of eternal damnation unless either absolved through the sacrament of confession, or otherwise forgiven

Out of the seven deadly sins, there are three reasons why I am most guilty of wrath. First, I have a very bad tendency to quickly get angry. Over the years, I have learned it is not appropriate in many situations because it portrays a poor demeanor, and allowing someone to have the impression that you are easy to infuriate. For instance, during the school year I was doing a birthday photo-shoot, for a girl that I barely talked to. And, I had been giving photo-shoots since freshman year, so it did not mean much to me. Although, we were just associates that was the first time, in a long time, that I enjoyed the photo-shoot. Throughout the shoot, she was immensely interested in my shirt, and we had been joking about it non-stop. After completing

The seven capital sins are pride, envy, wrath, gluttony, sloth, greed and Lust. These seven sins are also sometimes referred to as the seven deadly sins because they are very easy to fall into the habit of doing. It is very hard to fall out of the habit of committing these sins in life but there are ways to do them less. Everyone in life does one of these or maybe even all of them, but we can all work to resolve the problem of them and make them less “deadly.”

For a very long time, the Catholic Church enforced some incredibly stringent rules named the seven deadly sins. The concept of the seven deadly sins, formerly called the eight deadly sins, originated from a fourth-century monk named Evagrius Ponticus. People have always been immoral and self-gratifying, so the leaders in the church at the time wanted to construct a list of a person's spiritual shortcomings. They wanted this list to cover many different sins and behaviors; however, it also had to be concise, simple, and memorizable. In order of increasing seriousness, they were: gluttony, lust, greed, despair, wrath, sloth, vainglory, and pride. Later, around the sixth-century, Pope Gregory the Great reduced the list to include only seven deadly sins. He did this by including vainglory with pride, removing despair, and replacing it with envy. Pride was considered to be not only the worst, but also the root of all other sins. Throughout the Middle ages, the church taught everybody the meaning and severity of these sins. They also created and taught a list of seven virtues to counteract the deadly sins. In order of the sin they counteract, the virtues are: abstinence, chastity, liberality, patience, diligence, kindness, and humility. These sins and virtues were not taken lightly by the church. While the virtues balanced out the sins, there were severe punishments for the sins. These

The Bible classifies the seven deadly sins – greed, envy, sloth, wrath, gluttony, pride and lust – as the characteristics of people which will lead to unhappiness. One particular sin evident in our world today is greed. Greed is defined as an excessive desire to possess wealth or goods. The greed that exists in our world leads people to unhappy and selfish lives. Greed is evident through individual people, corporate companies and in our governments.
