Seven deadly sins

Deadly sins are called capital because they generate other sins, other vices. These sins are pride, greed, envy, anger, lust, gluttony and Anger. Many people say they are vices that lead to big problems for the person's life, it is important to show the true meaning Deadly Sins that have, so here talk a bit of what they are and the meaning that each has.

The classification of the Deadly Sins, have been mentioned in early Christian teachings Catholic in order to educate their followers on morality. The Roman Catholic Church divides sins into two main categories: "venial", those who are relatively minor and can be forgiven through any sacrament of the Church; and "fatal", which, being committed, destroying the life of grace and create the threat of eternal damnation unless they are acquitted through the sacrament of confession, or being forgiven after a perfect contrition by the penitent.

Capital One sin is one that has an excessively so desirable so that in their desire, a man commits many sins by that original flaw, St. Thomas, said. So the sins Capitals are called so because the man is constantly sin and those acts originate other acts that cause not a quarrel with God but a departure for acts that comment ill as a result of these sins.
But I will explain what are the seven deadly sins and the role that have in people's behaviour. The first is the desire Pride before the high honor and glory, the person must have humility to recognize that we are sinners and we are all equal for good or evil. Greed is another where the premium money to anything in life, this man should give and help those most in need without hesitation.
The third capital sin is Lust, sex-related topic, it is the person achieves Casta handle the thoughts and sexual acts. Another thing is to Anger , the fourth deadly sins, it is important to have patience with the problems and seek a solution without feel hatred for others.

Gluttony is the other vice, it should be controlled at the time to eat or drink, because other people need food and if you get shares more. Sloth is also the capital Envy not feel angry about what others can accomplish, that's not helping people have a high self-esteem. And make others do not wish the good of others but evil. And finally is Laziness, which is when the person does not respond to the few obligations and everything ago reluctantly.
With this we realize that human life is full of sins, and are reflected in many actions that man performs on a daily basis. with the Deadly Sins originate others sins who really affect a person's life, to the extent that cause damage and loss of the essence of being human.

SEVEN DEADLY SINS: The end of the world?

By David Ricardo Fonseca

In the world, humans are exposed to commit sins. Religions have tried to persuade people not to commit sins. "The capital sins or vices are those to which human nature is primarily inclined fall. The seven deadly sins, also known as the capital vices or cardinal sins, are a classification of vices that were originally used in earlychristian teachings to educate and instruct followers concerning inmoral fallen man's tendency to sin."1 The seven deadly sins: gluttony, sloth, greed, anger, lust, envy and arrogance. For more than 2000 years, these sins have inspired religious and artists to work hard in order to help people not to sin and live the life harmonies.





The definition of Seven Deadly Sins has been a fluid process, and as is common in religion, the idea of what each of these sins wraps has evolved over time. This process has been assisted in history because they are mentioned in one way encoded in the Bible; too, writers have been inspired to write literary books that prove the existence of good and evil: a great example is "The Divine Comedy ", Written by Dante Allighieri, is considered one of the masterpieces of Italian literature and world literature, where the writer describes originally hell, purgatory and paradise. In this work the deadly sins are replaced by people living in the shadows and who committed some of the seven sins.



Actually, gluttony is the excessive consumption of food and drink. The gluttony also includes certain forms of destructive behavior. Thus, the abuse of alcohol or psychoactive substances can be seen as examples of gluttony. In the "Divine Comedy" Alighieri wrote that penitents in Purgatory were forced to stand between two trees, unable to meet and eat fruits hanging from the branches of these, the greedy forced to smell the aroma of food without power taste.

The laziness is the most "metaphysical" of the Deadly Sins as is referred to the inability to accept and take care of the existence as such. God created man to work for his own livelihood and to conduct activities to assist in their health. This sin is in all countries but it is difficult to control because each person is responsible for their health. Also, The lust is usually considered the sin which includes obsessive thoughts or desires or excessive sexual nature. The unfulfilled lust can lead to sexual compulsions or sociological and / or transgressions including addiction to sex, adultery and rape. The concept of Dante was "excessive love for others," which would result in love and devotion to God as one second.

Greed applies only to the acquisition of wealth in particular. This sin has caused problems in all governments worldwide. Characters like Hitler, Stalin, Pinochet Napoleon or blindly were overrun by greed, and this brought serious consequences for the development of democracy in the world. Also, the anger can be described as a feeling of hatred and anger. These feelings can manifest as a denial of truth, both to others and made yourself, impatience with the procedures of law and the desire for revenge.

As greed, envy is characterized by an insatiable desire, however, differ by two major reasons: First, greed is more associated with material goods, while the envy may be more general, secondly, those who commit the sin of envy want something that someone else has, and they perceive that they need. Dante defined this as "love themselves to goods perverted desire to deprive others of theirs." The Purgatorio of Dante, the punishment for jealous was to close their eyes and Coco, who had received a pleasure to see others fall. Finally, pride is considered the original and most serious of Seven Deadly Sins, and indeed, is also the main source of stemming the other. It is identified as a desire to be more important or attractive than others, failing to flattery to the other. This sin is committed by lucifer want to be like God.

I think that the world is on trial with God. They must be strong to the sins that the devil offers. Committing a sin capital is serious for the Catholic faith and for the development of the same person. Each is committed to live in harmony and at peace with the neighbor.

Greed and avarice a bad sins




All people have some shortcomings that we must improve, the seven deadly sins, are a sample of the vices of humans. The deadly sins are: lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, envy, anger and arrogance. These vices were mentioned by the first Catholics to educate people.


The Catholic religion mentions that these sins can be forgiven only if people confess. Many people commit these vices by necessity and for this reason all people have the opportunity to confess.


Moreover one of the most serious deadly sins is greed or avarice. In many countries people see it as theft and robbery with violence, these are two clear examples of these vices because people always want more material things.


In many countries the government has problems with these sins. Many people who work in government betray the other with bribes because they want the personal benefit, but not everyone has these vices. Many people are helping others and not care about material things. Great characters in the human history like as Mother Teresa of Calcutta and Gandhi devoted his entire life to helping people and not looking for material things.


In conclusion, people must help others and not seek their benefit. Everyone knows that it is difficult to refuse and say no, but it is important that we all think that life is not only money and fame.
