THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS They are called “deadly” for a reason. Ultimately they result in the eternal death of our eternal souls - eternal damnation in the fires of hell. So, let us ask ourselves a very simple QUESTION: Should we ever celebrate one of the seven deadly sins?!

This Book Brings Clarity to Spiritual Weaponry to Fend Off EvilBy TJ BurdickIn this book, Dr. Vost takes his expertise of the human mind and unites it with the timeless truths of Thomas Aquinas’ work in order to help the reader form a psychological army to battle against sin. By pitting vice against virtue, he joins faith and reason to do war against evil on the battlefields of both the mind and the soul.“Although I am certainly unable to advise anyone from the perspective of one who has conquered these sins himself, I do stand ready to point you to the strategies and arm you with some of the weapons that great saints have devised to assist us in our relentless struggles against sin, toward virtue, and ultimately, toward union with God” (p.83).The first part of the book goes back to the early Church and creates a symmetrical consensus of just what the deadly sins are. Vost’s research of the historical and etymological interpretations of the names for each of the seven deadly, or capital, sins is exhaustive and complete.He then dissects each of the seven deadly sins with the literary scalpel of what St.

IOO INTRODUCTION HE business of literature is the presentation Tof life, all true literature resolves itself into that. No presentation of life is complete without its sins, and every master of literary art has known it, from the poet King of Israel to Robert Browning. The imagination of the Middle Ages, in many ways more virile and expansive than our own, had a strong grasp of this fact, and realised that it is the sense of fault or error that lies at the root of every forward movement, that there is no real progress unless it is accompanied by a sense of sin.

  • The Evolution of the Seven Deadly Sins: from God to the Simpsons

As early Christian doctrine repeatedly points out, the seven deadly sins are so deeply rooted in our fallen human nature, that not only are they almost completely unavoidable, but like a proverbial bag of The Evolution of the Seven Deadly Sins: potato chips, we can never seem to limit ourselves to just one. With this ideology, modern society agrees. However, with regard to the individual From God to the Simpsons and social effects of the consequences of these sins, we do not. The deadly sins of seven were identified, revised, and revised again Lisa Frank in the heads and classrooms of reportedly celibate monks as moral and philosophical lessons taught in an effort to arm men and women against I can personally attest that the seven deadly sins are still very much the temptations of sin and vice in the battle for their souls.

  • Pride in Christian Philosophy and Theology Kevin Timpe and Neal A
    Chapter 12 Pride in Christian Philosophy and Theology Kevin Timpe and Neal A. Tognazzini INTRODUCTION To reflect systematically on the concept of pride is a complicated task. It is complicated in part because the concept has been interwoven with Christian- ity for most of its history,1 and in part because pride is thought of variously as a positive emotion, a negative emotion or a vice. There is also a sense of ‘pride’ involving social movements in the context of social marginalization, such as the ‘Disability Pride’ or ‘Gay Pride’ movements, though we will have very little to say about that sense here.2 Pride is not unique in having a number of different meanings, some of which seem to be at odds with each other. A comparable complexity can be seen, for instance, in reflection on envy, which is sometimes taken to be an emotion, sometimes a helpful source of motivation and sometimes a vice.3 Pride is also on the list of ‘seven deadly sins’4 and, as we illustrate later, has been understood in one dominant strand of Christian theology as the root of all the sins. But as Michael Eric Dyson notes, ‘Of all the deadly sins, pride is most likely to stir debate about whether it is a sin at all’5 because of the positive senses of pride – for example, taking AuQ134 pride in one’s own successes or the accomplishments of one’s children. In this chapter, our primary aim will be to outline the roles that pride has historically played, and continues to play, in Christian theology and philo- sophical theology.

  • Avarice & Generosity This Week We Continue Our Look at the Seven
    Avarice & Generosity This week we continue our look at the seven deadly sins and seven life-giving virtues by looking at avarice (greed) and its antidote, generosity. Greed can be defined as the disordered desire for and love of earthy goods. Notice that avarice is the immoderate desire for earthly goods. It does not refer to our desire to acquire goods needed to live. Greed can take many forms. For example, there is a disordered desire for goods as if they are your end. “I must have this to be happy.” Essentially, this is idolatry. The good takes the place of God. Greed can also take the form of doing whatever it takes to acquire wealth. A parent who forsakes his or her family commitments for a job is a form of greed. Unfortunately, greed negatively impacts your spiritual life. Jesus teaches, “No one can serve two masters. He will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon” (Mt. 6:24). Love of possessions drives the love of God out of the heart. On one level, greed can be a serious sin if you place your trust in wealth rather than God. Sacred Scripture repeatedly condemns idolatry. Greed is less serious when it results in minor compromises of loving God and neighbor. In short, greed is like weeds in the heart. It must continually be pruned or it can crowd out the full flowing of love. Catholic Social Tradition teaches that we certainly have a right to private property (contra socialism).

These are central to moral philosophy and human behavior, and have been intensively examined through art and literature for more than fifteen hundred years, and recently through multimedia. This course provides the student with a background to gain understanding of these sins, their historical roots as well as the corresponding virtues that emerged from them in Eastern and Western societies. In addition to one central reader, the students will be required to view films placed on reserve in the library, artwork, electronic material posted online, and visit MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami) for the exhibit “Sympathy for the Devil: Art and Rock and Roll Since 1967 from May 30-Sept 7, and The Wolfsonian during the spring semester for a “Sins” exhibit from their collections. 6 Each major topic from Pope Gregory’s original list will share a complimentary discussion from the viewpoints of the BBC Poll (p xiv), Mahatma Ghandi’s list (p xiv), and Pope Benedict XVI’s new list that includes murder, contraception, abortion, perjury, paedophilia (pedofiles) adultery, and lust.

  • Handout #1 - “The Seven Deadly Sins” ("Self-Destructive Behaviors")
    Handout #1 - “The Seven Deadly Sins” ("Self-Destructive Behaviors") NOTE: Although Saint Thomas of Aquinas is usually given credit for these ideas, much of what he perceived originally came from the Greeks. This information is a revised and easy-to-understand version of what would otherwise be thought too complex to study in high school. A "sin" in the context of Thomas of Aquinas, can be defined as "something human beings do which causes them to be unreasonable and unhappy." Another way to define "sin" is "self-destructive behavior that one performs because he/she has never truly educated him/herself as to the passions which may drive and control him/her". These are "The Seven Deadly Sins." 1. ANGER You become angry at someone or something to the point that you lose control over your actions and words. 2. SLOTH You do something, but you only do it haphazardly -- only enough to get it done. Instead of giving life [people, yourself] your best, you give life less than your best. 3. GREED/AVARICE You let material items control your sense of contentment. You want more and more things and are never satisfied. 4. LUST You have a strong sexual attraction towards a person. You can't get him/her out of your mind. (You are "miserable" because you don't have "him" or "her" and this lustful feeling does not change the reality that you do not have him/her.) 5. ENVY You wish you were someone else because of the qualities and/or possessions a person has. You betray yourself -- in a sense play Judas to yourself.

Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Hwang, Eunyoung, Reinterpreting Hieronymus Bosch's Table Top of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things through the Seven Day Prayers of the Devotio Moderna. Master of Arts (Art History), August 2000, 140 pp., 35 illustrations, references, 105 titles. This thesis examines Hieronymus Bosch's Table Top of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things. Instead of using an iconographical analysis, the thesis investigates the relationship between Bosch's art and the Devotio Moderna, which has been speculated by many Bosch scholars. For this reason, a close study was done to examine the Devotio Moderna and its influence on Bosch's painting. Particular interest is paid to the seven day prayers of the Devotio Moderna, the subjects depicted in Bosch's painting, how Bosch's painting blesses its viewer during the time of one's prayer, and how the use of gaze ties all of these ideas together.

  • Holy Conversations 2
    SIN SIN Focus he Greek understanding of sin (hamartia) was missing the mark. This idea is more complicated than it seems at first glance. A sinner must have knowledge of moral righteousness, a target if you will, and have knowledge of its bull’s-eye. Over the history of Christianity that target, along with its bull’s- T eye, has often been referred to as God’s law. • Our Jewish siblings conceived of sin as largely communal, with one member able to pollute the whole group. • Christians emphasized personal sin, our salvation was in our own hands. • Since early Christianity, the concept of “sin” has developed into many targets, all hanging on a backdrop of “original sin.” • Are we to understand sin as vice; as brokenness from God, ourselves, or others; as willful disobedience of God; is it dependent on our intentions, weakness to temptation, or just inevitable in life? • Is our ultimate relationship to God dependent upon God’s grace or embedded in our deeds? • Contemporary Christian theologians have articulated modern sins: racism, social injustice, debt, even un-medicated depression. • Marriage equality has been denounced as sin. The theological stigma of the LGBTQ community is so often that of “sinner.” How do we choose to reclaim our belovedness and grace in the face of this? • How do we still understand our moral shortcomings in Christian terms? Some Centering Quotes about Sin Wherever there are humans, there will be sin. (John Portman) History will absolve me. (Fidel Castro) To define sin as an act that is a violation of the law of God leaves room for differentiating sin from crimes, the latter being acts that violate human laws.
