Despite popular opinion, the Seven Deadly Sins don’t actually feature in the Bible, at least not in a neat checklist. A couple of them feature in the Ten Commandments, a few appear as nuggets of wisdom in the book of Proverbs, and Paul reels off a list that contains a lot more than seven. Not only that, the list has changed over time, rather like a top 40, hit parade vibe. As anyone who has watched the movie Seven will know, the current ‘Top 7’ are: wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy and gluttony. Not to be confused with the Mortal Sins which lead the offender straight to Hell, Roman Catholics believe that the Seven Deadly Sins are starter sins, or in other words, sins that might, if left untreated, lead to Mortal Sins and an everlasting toasting in the company of Satan. Having compiled their list of Seven Deadly Sins, the meticulous Catholics also appointed a demon to each sin but, happily, for each deadly sin there is a Heavenly Virtue which can at least act as something positive for people to aim for. Over the centuries the Seven Deadly Sins have provided inspiration for artists, painters and film makers and are one of the most popular Bible vibes that aren’t actually in the Bible.
