Whoa whoa i didn't notice that, I put them on. stupid glitched post...hold on I'll fix it.Kimarous said:I'd have to say mine is Pride, with a close runner-up at Lust. Sloth takes third, but it's not quite to the same degree as the aforementioned two.
Can't say that Greed or Gluttony (missing from the poll, BTW) are my sins, though. I actually consider Charity and Temperance, their opposites, to be my strongest virtues.
They must have had a mixup, I'm talking about pride where, "yay I just did something good, I'm proud of what I did"Kimarous said:Jedamethis said:I don't see what's wrong witha little pride, but that.Allan53 said:Pride, although I do maintain that it isn't a sin. I recognise that I am, in fact, more intelligent then most people I meet. Kind of confuses me, actually, because I'm not really THAT bright.From Wikipedia said:In almost every list Pride (Latin, superbia), or hubris, is considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins, and indeed the ultimate source from which the others arise. It is identified as a desire to be more important or attractive than others, failing to acknowledge the good work of others, and excessive love of self (especially holding self out of proper position toward God). Dante's definition was "love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbor." In Jacob Bidermann's medieval miracle play, Cenodoxus, pride is the deadliest of all the sins and leads directly to the damnation of the titulary famed Parisian doctor. In perhaps the best-known example, the story of Lucifer, pride (his desire to compete with God) was what caused his fall from Heaven, and his resultant transformation into Satan. In Dante's Divine Comedy, the penitents were forced to walk with stone slabs bearing down on their backs in order to induce feelings of humility.
I agree with you on that point. I was simply defining what it's supposed to mean in the "sin" context.Jedamethis said:They must have had a mixup, I'm talking about pride where, "yay I just did something good, I'm proud of what I did"Kimarous said:snip
