Which of the Seven Deadly Sins relates most closely to the Holocaust?
The seven deadly sins are pride, greed, envy, wrath, lust, gluttony, & sloth. Which of these most closely relates to the sins of the Nazi’s in the Holocaust?
My first thought is wrath – but that’s just extreme anger. What the Nazi’s did was more than just anger..right?
My second thought was greed. Does this work? (Hitler had so much greed for the Aryan race that he tried to exterminate everyone else so he could have the world the way he wanted.)
Any thoughts?
Pride– supposedly for the so called Aryan super race. Greed– supposedly for Jewish wealth. Envy– supposedly for Jewish influence. Wrath— Jews were made to be a scapegoat for Germany’s national problems.
Its pretty much all of those.

Envy.
Christians have always envied Jews. They don’t like that we are the chosen people and they aren’t. They also don’t like that we work hard and make more money than they do, and are usually promoted to higher positions before they are. They hate having a Jew for a boss. It’s not our fault that Christians are underachievers, so we shouldn’t be slaughtered for their shortcomings.

Jewish
Pride. Because christians think they are superior to the Jews. Wrath as a close second. Envy because the Jews claim they are the chosen race, but that would be in third place.

I would say wrath then pride then greed and do not forget lust. Hitler has a sexual relationship with his niece and many other people. I heard that he was bi sexual and had orgies. He only had one testicle.
