As an aside, can anyone remember the missing sin? I've got Lust, Wrath, Envy, Greed, Sloth, Pride... What's the other one?
I just finished reading 'The Lucifer Code' (Last week's bestseller list). It's good. Though it kinda annoyed me that Amber was preggers at the end, but that wasn't important. It was really fun to try to work out what Soames' agenda was. ^_^

So the sin of lust isn't specifically wanting to have sex with every man/boy/fencepost in town (and half the women/girls/punchbowls too) but it's impurity of thoughts.

Date: 2006-04-11 10:19 pm (UTC)Well, this list is in order of, um... sanctity? By which I mean importance basically. Lust is at the top, and gluttony is below it by a bit. Lust has to do with your thoughts, and gluttony has to do with your actions and choices. Controlling lust, obviously, is more important because our actions and words tend to spring from our thoughts.
Does that help?
