PRIDE......I've always been proud of myself......in my appearrance, accomplishments and talents.......however, I don't really consider it to be a sin.....LOL, but I'm playing by your rules......LOL
And that's not the Pride the Bible mentions, Kiera, so you're safe! By Pride, it actually means Arrogance - individual, national, religious, and the notion than a man is greater than his Creator. The strict translation from the Hebrew is "Arrogance", kept so throughout the Greek and Latin translations, and only altered to Pride by King James.
Not sure if there is such a thing as "sin". There's plenty of bad traits in humans though.
To address Kiera's post, pride is a realistic measure of who and what you think of yourself. I was going to say, to undress Kiera's post....but that may be a sin. Paws
oh you can break the rules...that why they are there for...lol...I also agree on the idea that these are the deadly sins is just another way to try to prevent us from doing them
The strict religious definition sin is anything that is against the teachings of the faith in question. But that doesn't leave much, because so many religions are self-contradictory...an "eye for an eye" or "turn the other cheek"...which is it? (I know that one is explained away in the Gospels, but you get my drift...)
And the Cosmic Cookie said, "Let there be CS", and it came to pass that CS was born out of the ether of cyber-space. And this was good. Then the Cosmic C, said, "Let there be lonely ones to inhabit this world of CS", this also came to pass, and it was good. People came from far and wide to log-on, to profess and confess. Hell, this is heaven. Paws
That would be a question based on the assumption we all know what they are. As I am a lost sheep I cannot remember. If you tell me what they are I 'll tell you my favorite
