Lust, Greed, Glutony, Sloth, Pride, Envy, Wrath. I'm sure we all know what these are.

My question to you Escapists is this: Which sin is most predominant in you? Perhaps you are lazy, and so your answer would be Sloth. Maybe you have trouble controlling your anger, and you would be characterised by Wrath.

Personally? I would have to say Sloth for me. I'm rather lasy and love to put things off.
What a coincidence, I was watching Se7en the other day :p

Sloth for sure, quite lazy by nature. I go by my brother's creed of "Don't leave what you can do today for tomorrow. Leave it for the day AFTER tomorrow" :D

As for the others:

Lust - definitely according to the bible (fancying sexual thoughts more than God thoughts), but outside that... well I'd need a proper definition tbh. I don't lust after someone else when I'm with someone, but I definitely lust after the person I'm with. Then again, I see that as nothing short of a good thing :p
Greed - I do have some relatively high aspirations that definitely include material goods and money (mostly in the terms of financial stability), but greedy? Nah, not really.
Gluttony - yes by nature, no by choice. I do love to eat (and I'm the pickiest person around about my food, mostly eat crap), but changing that by choice for a healthier diet (and at the same time, a smaller one)
Pride - somewhat, yes. I can put it aside if I want to and do most of the time, but I don't tend to take bullshit that I don't think I had coming. There's also few things I hate more than assumed (unearned) authority.
Envy - hmmm, tough one. Materially, yes, I suppose, but then again that's the product of being born in a shitty country with nothing close to a decent standard. There's not as much envy as there is aspiration and a wish things were better all around though so I don't see it as a bad thing at all.
Emotionally? Yeah, I can definitely get jealous. I'm not unreasonable about it at all, but I'm not a fan of cheating and things that strongly seem to be leading towards it.
Wrath - somewhat by nature, no by choice. Which would actually be a no by the definition I suppose, considering I'm well able to control my anger.

I could swear I remember posting in this thread a few months ago.

Anyway, once again, while my faith doesn't recognize the existence of sin, if I had to choose, I would have to go with....

Lust.

Like any of you are really surprised. ^^

Sloth and Wrath. "I'd punch you in the face if I didn't have to get up..." Speaking of which, http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&safe=active&biw=1348&bih=546&gbv=2&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=Sloth&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq= Daaawww...

Probably Pride. Although I vote for the creation of another sin: Boredom :D

I would say pride, but I'm way too awesome to be characterized by one of the sins. : P

Well I'm very wrathful and full of pride and I'm greedy as hell and I'm envious of anyone who has more than I do, I often lazy and I'm gluttonous in everything, I can't just have a bit of something and I have a lot of lust...a lot. In Christian terms I'm a terrible person and probably going to hell...good thing I'm Asatru.

But yes Lust. Lust is definitely something I have.
