The Seven Deadly Sins

not at all. look at coal power plants: one of the largest sources of air pollution today, along with automobiles.

coal power plants are used to generate electricity which allows virtually all modern people of industrialized nations to perform their jobs adequately and efficiently, if at all. among those who rely on it are bankers. even cashiers, librarians, and prison gaurds, let alone computer technicians, repairmen, medical workers, and even the clergy. this is not a matter of greed, this is a matter of necessity to do work in the modern industrialized world. the people who work in the plants are not slothful, the people who use the product of the plants are not slothful. at least, not inherently.

neither is it inherently greedy, as generating electricity does not necessarily generate much money for the workers. the same can be said to greater or lesser extents of the jobs which rely on electricity.

 

I can see what you are getting at and you have a very good point, but you have also deliberately left out other sides of the argument.

For example, I am quite sure that most people I know have the knowledge, capacity and understand the need to cut their power usage by half, buy food responsibly and reduce waste yet they don't because they are lazy - Sloth. I am also quite sure that many corporations also have the knowledge and capacity to change their practices in order to work more sustainably but they don't because money is the bottom line - Greed.

Now that we have the knowledge about the need to act more sustainably, and about how to do it, it is not so much a question of necessity, but of choice.

100 years ago your argument would have been spotless.

I am hard core ant-religion. A bunch of cults every one of them! The Scientology is a mega-cult!

Okay let go over these sin one by one.
Gluttony: I never over eat. It's something I do to stay alive.
Greed: I have no problem sharing.
Sloth: Will maybe a little.
Wraith: What the point?
Envy: Same as Wraith.
Pride: Okay, maybe a little with this one also.
Lust: Basically I think sex is fun. Not into S&M but, otherwise kinky. <(^o^)>

 

Definitely sloth, then lust.

 

Probably glutony and sloth.

 

Isn't pretty much everything a sin? I am guilty of breathing every day. I also never thank invisible people for my food.
