Pride Gluttony Sloth Lust Envy Wrath Greed
These are the seven deadly sins according to the Bible which when committed destroy the life of grace unless confessed or forgiven.
Just one question though: How many of the landmark achievements in the history of mankind (and womankind) can you recall which can be claimed to be free from these 'sins'? How many great men (and women) can you recall who remained aloof of these 'sins'? How far would the human civilization have progressed had it abstained itself from these 'sins'?
Would you personally prefer the above to the below?
