EMOTIONALLY MOTIVATED OR SUCCUMBING TO THE TEMPTATIONS OF MENTAL ILLNESS, CRIMINALITY, SIN AND HATRED

THERE ARE MANY LISTS OF SINS WHICH DO NOT REALLY FIT MY UNDERSTANDING OF "DEADLY SIN".

The first sin, or personality flaw which refers to pride " a proud look ". Is there some misunderstanding possible without reasoning that haughtyness and showing off wealth to the impoverished and having a false pride in oneself that diminishes the achievement and circumstance of others would be offensive. Perhaps the modern Psychiatric Designation "Narcissism'" would be more accurate in 2019. 

The rest of this ancient list of offences is more relevant than most lists of Seven Deadly Sins, one can call them sins, but the designation "Offenses " is more meaningful to me.

1. A proud look,
2. a lying tongue,
3. hands that shed innocent blood,
4. A heart that devises wicked plans,
5. feet that are swift in running to evil,
6. A false witness who speaks lies,
7. and one who sows discord among brethren

The concept of Emotional Motivation is not entirely limited to Negative Motivation.

The alleged sin "Pride" motivates good actions. Emotional motivations like Love and Affectionate Bonds result in many beneficial situations actions and results.

In this series of Blog Postings I am unfortunately concentrated upon the negative effects and the bad acts which are the result of unbridled emotionally driven actions and statements which are calculated to do damage. The Emotions experienced by the perpetrators of damaging actions and words are a motivation to commit the bad acts and also a JUSTIFICATION OF WHY IT IS OK TO DO BAD THINGS TO INNOCENT PEOPLE based on how the perpetrators feel. 

Perpetrators of bad actions and false informing have emotional needs which override any necessity to be fair, honest and ethical. The need is so great. Perpetrators are often offended by characteristics or the circumstance of another person or group and then allow this sense of being offended to override any necessity to be fair, honest and ethical.

The most important "Negative Motivation"  which is seen as ``Emotional Motivation `` is Hate. Declarations of Hatred are often made to the Victims of Hatred by the perpetrators of damaging acts and declarations.  Hatred is recognized as  Criminal and it should be prominent on any list of Sins. Unjustified hatred of an innocent person or group or enterprise is wholly a manifestation of Mental Illness.
