Which sin do you identify with most?
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Yes, I've copied/lifted this from a rather old thread http://www.collarchat.com/fb.asp?m=40533. Think of this as being a "Green CMer"....recycling the old to share as if new [;)] My thanks to " feline" for posting the original....if you're still around under a new name, stop by and let us know!
Yeah...I'm board. Get over it, folks, and admit your sins. ____________________________________________________________________________________________
Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.
Why you do it: Well-meaning elementary school teachers told you to "believe in yourself."
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be broken on the wheel.
Associated symbols: Pride is linked with the horse and the color violet.
Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
Why you do it: Because other people are so much luckier, smarter, more attractive, and better than you.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be put in freezing water.
Associated symbols: Envy is linked with the dog and the color green.
Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
Why you do it: Because you were weaned improperly as an infant.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be force-fed rats, toads, and snakes.
Associated symbols: Gluttony is linked with the pig and the color orange.
Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
Why you do it: Oh, please.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be smothered in fire and brimstone. Not kisses.
Associated symbols: Lust is linked with the cow and the color blue.
Wrath is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Anger.
Why you do it: You're wired for it. Also, the people around you are pretty damn irritating.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be dismembered alive.
Associated symbols: Anger is linked with the bear and the color red.
Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.
Why you do it: You live in possibly the most pampered, consumerist society since the Roman Empire.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be boiled alive in oil. Bear in mind that it's the finest, most luxurious boiling oil that money can buy, but it's still boiling.
Associated symbols: Greed is linked with the frog and the color yellow.
Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.
Why you do it: You're shiftless, lazy.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be thrown into snake pits.
Associated symbols: Sloth is linked with the goat (or the goatfish, in the case of the Deadly Sins T-shirt) and the color light blue.
