Seven deadly sins

The seven deadly sins, also known as the capital vices or cardinal sins, is a Western grouping and classification of vices. This grouping emerged in the fourth century AD and was used for Christian ethical education and for confession. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, a mortal or deadly sin is believed to destroy the life of grace and charity within a person. Though the sins have fluctuated over time, the currently recognized list includes pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth. There is a parallel tradition of seven virtues.
The tradition of seven deadly sins as we know it today originated with the desert fathers, specifically Evagrius Ponticus. Evagrius identified seven or eight evil thoughts or spirits that one needed to overcome. Evagrius' pupil John Cassian brought that tradition to Europe with his book ''The Institutes''. The idea of seven fundamental vices or sins was fundamental to Catholic confessional practices as evidence in penitential manuals as well as sermons like "The Parson's Tale" from Chaucer's ''Canterbury Tales.'' This connection is also clear in how Dante's ''Purgatory'' is arranged by the seven deadly sins. The concept of seven deadly sins was used throughout the medieval Christian world to teach young people how to avoid evil and embrace the good as is evident in treatises, paintings, sculpture decorations on churches...〔 Works like Peter Brueghel the Elder's prints of the Seven Deadly Sins as well as Edmund Spencer's ''The Faerie Queene'' show the continuity of this tradition into the modern era. A commonly used mnemonic acronym to remember the seven deadly sins is "SALIGIA," based on the first letters in Latin of the seven deadly sins: ''superbia'', ''avaritia'', ''luxuria'', ''invidia'', ''gula'', ''ira'', ''acedia''.
==Biblical Antecedents==

The seven deadly sins in their current form are not found in the Bible, however there are biblical antecedents. One such antecedent is found in the Book of Proverbs 6:16-19. Among the verses traditionally associated with King Solomon, it states that the Lord specifically regards "six things the Lord hateth, and seven that are an abomination unto Him", namely:〔(verse Proverbs 6:16–19 )〕
# A proud look
# A lying tongue
# Hands that shed innocent blood
# A heart that devises wicked plots
# Feet that are swift to run into mischief
# A deceitful witness that uttereth lies
# Him that soweth discord among brethren
Another list, given this time by the Epistle to the Galatians (Galatians 5:19-21), includes more of the traditional seven sins, although the list is substantially longer: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, "and such like". Since the apostle Paul goes on to say that the persons who practice these sins "shall not inherit the Kingdom of God", they are usually listed as (possible) mortal sins rather than capital vices.
