The Seven Deadly Sins

I've been doing some thinking and just some random thought in my head had me curious as to what all seven of the deadly sins were. I already knew a few of them, but just out of curiousity, I felt the need to discover what they were.

Envy
What it is: Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
Why you do it: Because other people are so much luckier, smarter, more attractive, and better than you.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be put in freezing water.

Sloth
What it is: Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.
Why you do it: You're shiftless, lazy, and good fer nuthin'.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be thrown into snake pits.

Gluttony
What it is: Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
Why you do it: Because you were weaned improperly as an infant.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be force-fed rats, toads, and snakes.

Wrath
What it is: Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.
Why you do it: You're wired for it. Also, the people around you are pretty damn irritating.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be dismembered alive.

Pride
What it is: Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.
Why you do it: Well-meaning elementary school teachers told you to "believe in yourself."
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be broken on the wheel.

Lust
What it is: Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
Why you do it: Oh, please.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be smothered in fire and brimstone. Not kisses.

Greed
What it is: Covetousness is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Greed.
Why you do it: You live in possibly the most pampered, consumerist society since the Roman Empire.
Your punishment in Hell will be: You'll be boiled alive in oil. Bear in mind that it's the finest, most luxurious boiling oil that money can buy, but it's still boiling.

My Resource

These, my friend, are the seven deadly sins. If any of you who might have come across this post and plead guilty to any of the above sins, I recommend you rethink your life and see where your life might end up if you continue the sin(s). I'm certain there were be a few people who will be in complete denial of any of the above sins. Although I'm not a real big religious fanatic, I still believe there is the fight for Good vs. Evil, God vs. Satan, Heaven vs. Hell...I believe in all that good stuff, I just don't go out of my way to show it. I, myself have realized that I am only in my 17th year of my life and I still have time to change things before it gets too serious. Hell, I'm not even out of high school yet! Remember...remember these sins and choose the right path. Don't let these sins overwhelm and consume your entire existence, everyone has the will power to correct any mistakes they may make, but are they willing to do so? You and only you know the answer to that question...
