What to you is the worst of the seven deadly sins?

http://strawpoll.me/7181968
>>
Greed

El bumpo
>>
>>27395697
Doing yo' daddy
>>
Lust, it's what makes betas so thirsty and willing to become women's doorstops to get laid. This then inflates the women's ego and they will only accept Chad.

If we all had some self respect and controlled our lust, things would balance out for the better.
>>
Lust is the absolute worst.
>>
Lust, not only is it the reason I can't get a girlfriend, it's the only reason I want one in the first place
>>
Wrath is worst, I think.

Lust is completely normal.
>>
>>27396778
>luster is normal
Why because the liberals tell us it's okay to be a slut?
Fuck off back to redshit you Roastie whore
>>
Pride or Lust are the worst. I think, people refusing to admit when they're wrong can lead to very toxic environments. Lust is also why women can do what they do.

I think Greed is least evil, Greed can do some good if used right.
>>
Worst: Greed because it harms everybody including yourself by commodifying the human experience
Best: Pride because it's natural & healthy to be proud of your accomplishments
>>
>>27396819
Lust is (very strong) sexual desire. It's the very strong that makes it potentially dangerous, but sexual desire per se is normal and healthy.

Wrath, I think, can only be destructive and carries the greatest potential for violence and abuse.
>>
>implying sloth is not the reason we're all here
We're all sinners lurking in hell before our deaths.
>>
>>27396933
I think the pride thing isnt just being proud of your accomplishments, its lording those accomplishments over other people and thinking you are a better person because of X or Y

envy pride and greed are the same

Greed. Greed can cause all of the other sins to occur.

Wrath is second worst because it's just shitty and the only other to cause harm to others.

Being a sloth shouldn't count as a sin at all.
>>
>>27395697
Greed of course
>>
I always thought it was odd that betrayal isn't included, seeing as how that's arguably the major sin in the Bible.

I also feel like neglect should be in there.
>>
Lust without a doubt
>>
Sloth has always seemed weird to me. Being lazy is a sin? It's not as bad as greed or wrath, but I guess '6 deadly sins' doesn't sound right.
>>

what the sin pride really means is arrogance,
not pride

Lust and Wrath are pretty much the most evil.
>>
>>27395697
None of them. They were made up by losers who were envious of the people above them,

>pride
Mad that people celebrate their accomplishments. Losers have none.

>greed
Mad that society chooses who is valuable by giving them money. Losers have no value, thus no cash.

>gluttony
Mad that people have the power ( =wealth =luxury ) of indulging in excess. This is NOT to say that the rich don't pinch pennies, but that the losers don't make proper financial decisions or understand opportunity cost.

>sloth
Mad that people "seemingly" have to work (labour) less. Losers don't understand that they rest more exactly because they work harder. Example: employer finds work and makes deals. Employee just has to show up and follow a script. If the employee fails, he simply loses his job. If the employer fails, he loses all of his assets.

>envy
Mad that competition exists, which breaks the ideal that "everybody is equal." If there are no winners, there are no losers either.

>lust
Mad that better looking people get more sex. Demonising sex levels the playing field.

>wrath
Mad that people get to freely express their emotions. Losers have to suck it up to stay in the good graces of those above them, because they wouldn't make it on their own otherwise.

>>
>>27397559
wow thats the typical logic of r9k bait threads,
that nobody cares about.

>>27395697
Greed, gluttony and lust are all the same.

Envy is the worst. It leads to the most vicious acts.
>>
>>27397581
But it isn't in Christianity. Suicide is considered a sin, and so is sloth. So you're brought into the world without any say in if you want to exist or not, and if you don't do things in a very specific way in the life you were forced to live, you go to hell.
>>
The greatest sin is regret. But it's also the thing that will save you; that will save us all.
>>
>>27397499
>>27397616
Betrayal is the original sin though. God trusted Adam and Eve to not eat the magic fruit and they betrayed him. And then Judas betrayed Jesus.

In Dante's Inferno, the bottom circle of Hell is for traitors, and is where Judas and Satan are.

Faith is essentially trust. The basis of Christianity is the trust Christians have in Jesus to save their souls. The crucifixion was supposed to be the ultimate demonstration of sincerity. So it just makes sense for betrayal to be the major sin.

how can it be misery if you are complacent with it?
>>
>>27397924
Because it inherently goes against what it means to be "civilized". It's the most primal but ironically the most human.

It's why our sexual urges have to be controlled more than anything in society. But in nature it's almost perfectly fine.

>>
>>27397562
The main sin is pride, for thinking themselves deserving of being cared for by others. Without pride they would realize they are not doing their part, and they would stop being slothful.

Pride precedes all other sins, it allows people to be okay with sinning. You can't commit greed, lust or envy without thinking yourself deserving of more. You can't be wrathful without thinking yourself always right and others always wrong. You can't commit gluttony and sloth without thinking that people who starve and work hard all day are less important than you.
>>
>>27395697
i think they are all exactly the same.
they are just the motivation to commit the sin,
the weight of the sin they commit it what counts.

its not evil to eat a donut becase you are glutton, or getting angry about someone ate your donut.
but its horrible if someone fucks kids and kill them because of lust.
or suicide bombing because of the wrath you get because some people insulted your assfucked koran.

lust

Noun

1.very strong sexual desire.


Verb

1. have a very strong sexual desire for someone.
>>
>>27398042
>You shouldn't have cause to feel them
Yeah well shoulda woulda coulda, can't undo the past, can only prevent the same mistakes from happening again.

>And they shouldn't be what motivates people to redeem and better themselves
I agree. Regret should be temporary until the necessary changes are in place for a person to never repeat that mistake again without having to think about the regret. But even then, the regret would ideally still linger in its own small way so the individual doesn't slide back.

I don't know, I think things would be a lot more chaotic without regret. It's a good catalyst, I wouldn't knock it. Problem is when people use it to beat themselves up. Punishment is a gay dynamic, it's all about change.
>>
>>27395697
Greed, I guess. None of these are necessarily bad.
>>
>>27398122
it's those two put together, plus sloth
I definitely understand greed being in first, but gluttony not being at least third is some bullshit
>>
>>27398122
Lust is just wanting sex, greed is wanting power. Gluttony is over indulgence. They can go together but they're still separate. You can want to fuck someone and have lots of money and not be gluttonous.

>>27398241
How's it different in religion? I'm curious
>>
>>27398085
I'm not entirely sure of this. You can do shitty things compulsively and be ashamed of those things. Hell, some people do shitty things compulsively because they're -not- proud, as an escape or whatever.

Pride can be an enabler but on its own? Doesn't seem too harmful. Plus universal pride is great. If you're proud only of yourself but never others, then that's gonna cause some dissonance (main problem with all sin). But if you're proud of everyone and everything simultaneously, all the time? And so is everyone else? Woah.

Pride as an exclusionary principle though, I feel you.
>>
envy, pride is good, it make you like yourself and want to do great things, without pride you hate yourself just like me and want to die

>>27395697
You can spin any of them to be good or bad

greed is the seeking of material wealth.
beeing rich is kind of a sin.

The irony of sin is that the easiest way to avoid it is to stop engaging with reality at all. This still circumvents sloth because sloth implies that you're ignoring something that you shouldn't be, and if you are entirely disengaged from reality then there is nothing to force the expectation or responsibility upon you.

Truly, the only way to win is not to play. Because even if you play it right for a little bit, the chance of fucking it up always remains in the future.
>>
>>27398334

No, I simply acknowledged that your reality would get along just fine without me. Should a serial killer baby rapist kill himself in order to righteously protect the earth from him, or is that too much of a sin?

>>
>>27398942
>Also, it's considered hurting the system because you aren't helping it
That's warped. You're hurting me because you're not giving me $5 right now, how could you?!
Even from a capitalistic perspective, removing a drain on resources causes an overall net gain over continuing to allow that drain to exist.

>Essentially, we're all put here to make & raise babbies and improve the common good
No, the problem is some of us aren't. A lot of us aren't. Actually, we don't really know why we're here to begin with, but we'll go with the idea that what you're saying is what we're "supposed to do" because that's the model we're working with.

What if you are literally incapable of behaving in this way that you're supposed to? Oh just try harder, keep suffering forever, keep draining resources and fucking up the world for people around you while you get up only to fall back down over and over again like a blind, stumbling idiot? Repeated failure costs the common good. And, again, you have people with really really "bad" compulsions like murdering and mayhem and whatnot that they simply can't control. Would it not, then, be a function of something good within them that tells them to terminate themselves so that they can no longer harm another?

Fuck this utilitarian bullshit anyway tho

Anyway the point I'm trying to make is that even when working with a conventional moral framework, suicide seems to be waaay more circumstantial in terms of "sinfulness" than it is absolute.

>People see it as throwing away the greatest gift we're given
Why is this a sin? The only person this negatively impacts is the one who is doing the throwing away, they are the only one without the "gift" anymore, not anyone else (provided they have no social ties). And again, their mere presence might be a "gift"-detractor.

If it truly is an honest mistake, then a benevolent god should understand, should he not?
>>
>>27399417
Also why doesn't a person have a right to decide whether the "gift" is a "gift", if it truly is a "gift" then you should at least be given the opportunity to determine that for yourself (and hopefully be correct with your judgment).

If life is the equivalent of a dead rat to you (it isn't to me, but I know it is to others), you'd have to be a pretty shitty person to saunter up to them and invalidate all that they've been through.
