Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Of the seven deadly sins, only envy is no fun at all.
Every time that I think of the crucifixion of Christ, I commit the sin of envy.
The Bible and several other self help or enlightenment books cite the Seven Deadly Sins. They are: pride, greed, lust, envy, wrath, sloth, and gluttony. That pretty much covers everything that we do, that is sinful... or fun for that matter.
Envy is an insult to oneself.
Envy is never general, but always very particular - at least envy of the kind one feels strongly.
Envy is human nature.
All the seven deadly sins are man's true nature. To be greedy. To be hateful. To have lust. Of course, you have to control them, but if you're made to feel guilty for being human, then you're going to be trapped in a never-ending sin-and-repent cycle that you can't escape from.
Pride is not the worst of sins. In fact, it's one of the most interesting ones.
Jealousy - that jumble of secret worship and ostensible aversion.
The seven deadly sins: Want of money, bad health, bad temper, chastity, family ties, knowing that you know things, and believing in the Christian religion.
