I WAS SO PROUD OF MY SON WHEN HE READ HIS ESSAY. (Boy, that felt good to say.)
Hahaha, good try. I must tell you in private, not here.

Probably gluttony,....I like what I like and I like a lot of it!! Not so much food, as most people think of with that word, although great tasting food is so tempting to overdo, but other things as well. Wine, company of people I love to be with, sleep, and comforts in general. Looking on the bright side, I believe some of the others may be worse,......anger, greed and envy. Am blessed there at least!

This very question nutures the same it asks about, just in reading and the 'thinking" of such. I say don't clutter up your mind and heart, with such dark drak. Seek ever for the Good in spite of the noise of Chaos, we all know its there, but good men need not suffer the visciousness of it; we need not be a part of it.
The Evil Eye ever sees but fault. It is magnetic and will draw yet more of its kind to itself; to its thinker. The Evil Eye can soon blind one to the good, so much so, one will not be able to recognize the Good when it tries to come, because the "perception for evil is greater than for seeing the Good. Unhappiness, miseries and sorrows are symptomatic, and a heavy price to pay
Therefore beware of what you dedicate your thoughts too or pay the piper. Let them hear it who can.

Pretty obvious. LOL
Never was one to discriminate so I guess at one time or another all of them to some degree except anger and envy.
I can honestly say I have never hated anyone so I put that in the "anger" basket.
I do not envy anyone I am happy if they are happy or fortunate.
My favourites would be LUST and GLUTTONY sometimes at the same time.

Did you guys know that the 7 deadly sins were NOT in the bible; at least NOT in that form ?
The 7 deady sins was kind of a by-laws written up by the Pilgrims in the 1600s .

what about you, PKB, Which 7 deadly sins are you guilty of ? My brother's wife is guilty of ALL of them.

Pride: when I thought my kids had it just a little better than the ones who were from broken or single parent homes (until it happened to us)
Lust: in that I have not always been considerate of other people's relationships, or even my own
Gluttony: because I can open a big bag of chips and eat the entire thing in one sitting; I could bowl ten games without stopping; I always refill the extra large buttered popcorn at the theatre.
Anger...a biggie. Mark and I were classmates from kindergarten through high school. About 25 years AFTER we graduated, I was visiting with him at a campground where he was the lifeguard. He told me the thing he most remembered about me in elementary school was that I was always angry. REAL eye-opener.
SLOTH is currently my worst "deadly sin". I can lay around all day doing nothing but watching TV and hanging out here.
Thank you for asking!
Did all of them looking for one that I really liked but it wasn’t worth hanging in there with any of them.

I hope that day comes for you.
Bob - everyones personal struggles are their own, between them and themselves. Thus so long as ones doubts they will remain, so also ones worldly trials thereof, reflecting in the Joy or the Sorrows that guide the way.
I say let it Joy, in the "knowing" for by Joy is the Kingdom of Heaven become as a Light for men on Earth. For what so ever be bound on Earth shall be bound in Heaven and what soever be bound in Heaven shall be bound on Earth. Open your mind to preceive and receive the Good, and this is happiness within and without, in all of earth life. God Bless. :- )

Personally, I don't want to be bound by an overabundance of bad habits (of which all seven of those fall into that category IN MY OPINION) when I enter Heaven.
I find it presumptuous of you to suggest my mind is not open to perceive and receive the
"Good". I'm not sure where you are going with your Joy, Kingdom of Heaven, Light references, but it sounds like religion. I have faith and I am a Christian.
