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