Got this book, and it had me thinking; what's your worst sin? Meaning, which of the seven sins do you have the hardest time controlling?

Mine, without a doubt, is sloth. :(

Envy probably. I get jealous of people with nice things and i impulsively imagine character flaws to attribute to them. I definitely have to catch myself doing it.

At least you're honest about it.

In this case I think it means arrogance.

Y'know, the type of people that think that just because they're mid-level managers at work they expect to be treated the same everywhere else . . ..

I chose pride. I don't believe it's a sin, but I'm a very proud person. I'll never ask for help, and I'll always stand by my decisions, even if something terrible will happen when I do. I'm all about the pride. Lost a lot of friends in my life over not apologizing.

All that and you're still not convinced pride is a sin? :confused:;)

Because it takes some level of pride to realize that your opinion might be of consequence, and that you're capable of doing things. We all know what that leads to...

I don't really believe in sin, or God, etc. I've consistently chosen my pride over every other alternative, and turned down chances to change my ways. My pride is important to me. I couldn't imagine being without it. It's certainly not a bad thing.
