I warn the now that the Catholic religion is heavy implied in the next passages and u may not know the people/things referred to, I’ll do my bust to go into depth on a few people and things mentioned .~ Seven Deadly Sins Everyone knows the Seven Deadly Sins. But here’s some information about the Sins and what each one really means. First, why are the called the ‘Deadly’ sins? The church made a division between sins which were venial and could be forgiven without the need for the sacrament of Confession and those which were capital and merited damnation. Capital or Deadly Sins were so called because they could have a fatal effect on an individual’s spiritual health. British wall paintings stressed the connection between committing the Deadly Sins and ending up in Hell. Next, why Seven sins? After three, seven is the number of greatest religious significance in ancient Judaism. God made the world in six days and rested on the seventh, hallowing it. The number seven consequently had connotations of completeness or perfection. It was also significant in the Ancient World, associated with the seven planets, the seven ages of man and the Seven Wonders of the World. Given its prominence in Jewish and Antique thought, it is not surprising that it retained its significance in the early Church. The Seven Deadly Sins became one of a number of important groups of seven current in the medieval church, for example, the Seven canonical hours, the Seven petitions of the Lord’s Prayer, the Seven Joys and Seven Sorrows of the Virgin and, of course, the Seven Corporal Works of Mercy. Last, the Sin of the day is. . . Pride The root of all evil A desire to be important or attractive to others or excessive love of self (holding self out of proper position toward God or fellows; Dante's definition was "love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbor"). In the Latin lists of the Seven Deadly Sins, pride is referred to as superbia. In Jacob Bidermann's mediaeval miracle play Cenodoxus - superbia is the deadliest of all the sins, and led directly to the damnation of the famed Doctor of Paris, Cenodoxus. ~Dante, one of the greatest poets of all time, and incomparably the greatest among the Italians. Punishment in Hell will be: broken on the wheel. Associated symbol and color: Pride is linked with the horse and the color violet. In 1589, Peter Binsfeld paired each of the deadly sins with a demon, who tempted people by means of the associated sin. According to Binsfeld's classification of demons. Lucifer is the demon of Pride. |  ~!NOTE: I JUST RECHED 1,000 VISTS!~ To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wildflower... hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour... ~silverdragon~ |
