Gluttony & Greed are truly horrible.
Lust isn't really a sin, it's sex.
Wrath seems like a natural way to feel, if you've been wronged.
Envy doesn't make for a happy life, but it doesn't seem like a serious "sin".
Pride, excessively, would mostly be a problem for the person experiencing it, but not all that harmful to the rest of the world.
They are all bad, but I think that Greed and Gluttony are the most damaging to the world.
This poll is really good. It's a very tough decision and I put gluttony. I put it because gluttony can actually lead to the other 6 deadly sins and this reason is all I'm going to put. =P This could be a controversial debate and is one of the better polls on here.
THERE ARE NO 7 DEADLY SINS.
They began as The Eight Evil Thoughts... NOT SINS AT ALL.
The Catholic Church used the writing of a monk (Ponticus) and a poet (Dante) to control the masses. Churches are like that.
You don't ACTUALLY believe they are sins, do you?
HA, Ha, ha!!
...who cares if they are or arent sins? The "Seven Deadly Sins" are just general ideas of the not-so-great personality traits one could have.
btw, ending seemed a bit maniacal there...
("HA, Ha, ha!!)...
yeah but 'the seven thoughts you shouldn't be thinking' Really wasn't catching on
Lust and greed. Lust leads to rape and abusive relationships. Greed leads to betrayal and stepping on everyone else to get on top will make everyone hate you. Which a few greedy political figures have done. Sloth is another one. It can destroy others and yourself due to laziness.
I chose "wrath" because that seems to be one sin that can cause harm to others. The others, they don't seem to affect other people. Though gluttony is starting to affect other people (ie, having to pay for an obese person's medical care) But I still think that wrath is probably the worst, at least in my opinion.
Stop listening to the bible. I like the idea of religion, but the naysayers ruin it for me constantly. They say "the bible was written a mere man" and "Dinosaurs made us" (just kidding about that last one)
Sloth...sloth can lead you to every one of the other ones...and they are SINS against yourself.
Pride is the worst. Pretty obvious actually. All sins are born from pride.
Eg. Greed is when you think you deserve more than every one else, so you try to take as much as you can.
True. And pride goeth before a fall.
To quote Iron Maiden (who quoted someone else):
O god of earth and altar, bow down and hear our cry.
Our earthly rulers falter, our people drift and die.
The walls of gold entomb us, the swords of scorn divide.
Take not thy thunder from us, take away our pride.
i dont see this as sins, for me they are just feelings that everyone has.But i think lust is the best.=)
the only time Lust could be a sin is if it corrupts you so much that you'll hurt a lover or someone else just so you can get more pleasure.
I think wrath is the worst one because it intends to inflict cruelty. Anger is bad karma. The rest can be kind of harmless in moderation.
its hard to tell, laziness mainly effects yourself so unless you have a family you are only hurting yourself. gluttony also mostly applies to yourself because it can cause you to steal and wont rly effect anyone else in too dramatic of a way, also when you get caught u will go to jail away from peeps. Lust can end in a child and if you dont take responsibility thats a single parent household bt that can actually be good as long as both partners werent going off lust and one really cares past the biological links. Wrath can effect everything around you and can hurt anyone if you let ur anger control you. Pride is just annoying and it can only hurt yourself or people depending on you. envy can cause people to kill if its bad enough and excessive greed WILL get you killed in the end. we all have seen the movies, we all have played the games, and alot of people can tell you about how someone died in a drug shooting (drugs are sold for money = greed) or somethign like that.
Lust. People who are physically attracted to others are just the worst. They deserve to die and burn in hell for all eternity.
Don't feel like Carrying this on.
+ xD <3 = "LiveLaughLove"
-Just Smile =), or whatever gets you through the day! In the end its your life, you can choose to live it how you want, but to be on the GOOD side, is the RIGHT side.
Amen people, thats a wrap.
#YOLO...
The End.
The "7 deadliest sins" aren't even in the Bible. I just thought I'd tell everyone that for those who may not know.
Pride. Unless you can keep it to yourself and not shove it up other peoples' noses.
Wrath is by far the worst of the deadly sins. Without wrath would their be gangs running up and down the streets killing their brothers? Without wrath would their be wars going on in every country Civil or global? I don't think so.
-YYW
Some of these aren't even bad at all, they're just human. Lust? Pride? These things are wrong?!?! LOL!
'well i just want to say, How can you sin if you want to be like Jesus Christ?<BR>To be like Jesus Christ is not a SIN, but more on the "Do not idolise anyone but your Lord, or do not follow or worship false prophets/ Leaders etc ...<BR>To be Jesus Christ is not a SIN either, its only that we aren't worthy, for he is the son of GOD (Rabbit Fingers) But!<BR>To disobey the 10 Commandments is Sinning!<BR><BR>-JUST SAYING !<BR>#YOLO ...
not really. these are not exclusive to religious systems. They are considered almost universally inappropriate. I love how religion gets the "hit" for being superficial and all, but the truth is that these are actually bad traits. They are inherently bad, and lead to other activities, lifestyles that are equally destructive.
