Memoirs of an Endless Existence

Why I hate ice-creams (and most of the other sweets)
Now this is a very stupid question because it should be me asking you who would like to eat a piece of brightly-colored artificially-flavoured frozen water that supports itself on nothing but a wooden piece of stick and requires you to constantly lick its exposed surface with your bare tongue otherwise little-little drops of sticky (read yuck) brightly-colored artificially-flavoured water fall down on your shirt, pants, arms, legs, and everywhere else where you least want it to and leave spots which are not very easy to remove.

Of PG and SLEWG
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?

Humility
Faith and Temperance
Zeal
Self control
Love
Kindness
Generosity

ALSO: Vivekanand spoke for 72 hours non-stop on "Zero"
