Keep religion or any beliefs out of this. Even if you don't believe in any of this, I'm pretty sure most can relate to the meaning of at least one.

I'd say Greed, Lust, Sloth and Wrath. Definitely used to be gluttonous back in my Mia days, but that was more than 2 years ago.

Pride and sloth.

All of them.

Envy - YES, but not regularly.
Gluttony - NO.
Greed - NO.
Lust - YES, but not regularly.
Pride - NO, but on rare occasions, YES.
Sloth - YES, the one that annoys me the most.
Wrath - NO.

Voted for Sloth and Envy.

Envy - Yep, fairly regularly.
Gluttony - Yep, as evidenced by my current waistline.
Greed - Occasionally.
Lust - Very regularly.
Pride - You betcha.
Sloth - Oh yes.
Wrath - Not so much, but every now and then.

Booze and sex are my biggest vices, so I guess sloth and lust would be the ones I choose as my faves of the 7.

Every single one.

*How are gluttony and greed different? Isn't eating excessively an act out of greed? And the same can be applied to lust, pride and envy; both are results of excessive desires (greed).

Post subject:  Re: The Seven Deadly Sins

Envy - A bit
Gluttony - Nah
Greed - Not much
Lust - All the time
Pride - When you're as great as I am, that happens
Sloth - Not really
Wrath - Not much

I guess according to the Church, they are all interrelated and all stem from the single sin (Pride).... but Greed is applied more to wealth/finances while Gluttony is simply food/edible things to the point of wasting them. Lust is sexual lust.

"Hubris" would probably be a better word to use here.

Not as eye catching, plus they are suppose to make you feel all guilty and horrible Hubris makes me want some bread.

True.

Then again, this is a Christian list, isn't it? Christians want everyone to be humble and never question authority, so perhaps "pride" is appropriate.

I always thought the Seven Deadly where just a big Catholic thing, the guilt is so strong!

Greed is sometimes called "avarice" in a seven deadlies context to clarify the difference. In the original Latin list, it was "avaritia".

Pride is bad pride ("superbia") and I think you could just as reasonably call it hubris or even vanity.
