Updates

Well it all in the end worked it self out. And I am now 15 years old. *jumps up and down* well I must apologize for not updating in like almost a month. *bows head* sorry.

I�ll do a little recap of my weekend. First we, and by we I mean Erin and me, went over to Ema-Lee�s house. Rin also came with her rat Jibril, that I so loving call gribble. We played with my brother pocket rocket. We started to watch DNAngel but we fell asleep at the end of the seconded disc, at like 2 in the morning. We got up and Ema-lee made us blueberry waffles. We then went over to my house and made Butterfinger dissert. Went to my aunts then Ema-Lee�s cousin�s graduation party. Then went back to my house and started watching DNAngel commentary ten the 3ed disc at like 1:30 in the morning but we feel asleep. And that�s it, now I will start/end with deadly sins where I left off.

~Warning: the next few passages have a reference to the Catholic religion.
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. . .

Gluttony


Wasting of food, either through overindulgence in food, drink or intoxicants, misplaced desire for food for its sensuality, or withholding food from the needy. The endless maw of the glutton is never satiated, and he or she is never satisfied. The glutton lives to eat and soon escalates to forgetting gratitude. The pursuit goes on and leads to damnation.

Punishment in Hell will be:force-fed rats, toads, and snakes.
Associated symbols: Gluttony is linked with the pig and the color orange.



Beelzebub is the Demon of Gluttony
The Lord of the Flies


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...
