   The seven deadly sins (according to the Christian faith) are:

   1. Lust
   2. Gluttony
   3. Greed
   4. Sloth
   5. Wrath
   6. Envy
   7. Pride

   Lust is simply wanting to be with someone for sexual desires, or obsessing over excessive sexual thoughts.

   Gluttony is the over-consumption of anything to the point where you are wasting, or taking in more than you really need. This goes for food or drink.

   Greed is self-explanatory, being selfish when it comes to wealthiness or money.

   Sloth is a confusing one. The "sloth" sin is actually depression. Being in extreme sadness for a prolonged period of time, being joylessness or depressed is considered as sloth.

   Wrath is described as having excess feelings of hatred or anger. If you’re constantly thinking "I want to hit him so bad.." or "I wish she would just die." that can be considered as wrath.

   Envy is described as wanting something another has. It could be material items, such as wishing you had your neighbor’s car, or it could be a physical feature, "I wish I had hair like her’s" or even wishing you were that person instead of yourself.

   Pride is considered the most serious of the deadly sins, where you put yourself above others and think you are more important than everyone else.

   Hope that helps

   U’no, I don’t think I can properly rank each sin, so I’ll list ‘em in no particular order.

   wrath – "U fool! I’m gonna whup your @§$!"
   lust – "Hey, pretty lady. Do u wanna make whoopee?"
   envy – "Damn! I wish that crap was mine!"
   gluttony – "I knew I shoulda gone to Quiznos instead of Jack In the Box!"
   pride – "§#өөdamn I’m awesome! Suck it, u buffoons!"
   greed – "Ha ha! All this crap is mine! Damn, I make 2 much money!"
   sloth – "Eh, I’ll do it tomorrow. What’s on TV?"

   The seven deadly sins are as follows:
   lust: Wanting that (sexually) which is not yours.
   gluttony: Indulging in too much of anything
   greed: Always wanting more than you have.
   sloth: Being lazy or procrastinating.
   wrath: Being angry without justification.
   envy: Wanting what others have…not being content.
   pride: Not giving God the credit for your accomplishments.

   Hope this answers your question.
