The Origins of the Seven Deadly Sins

"Do not eat winged creatures like bats" Maybe they had a point

So I’m not religious, but I enjoy learning about this stuff, it’s like reading stories about Greek or Norse mythology, and it’s so cool to see the effect on culture that different stories and beliefs have!

The Seven Deadly Sins: *exists Anime: 'It's free real estate'

Sadness: *is a sin Depression rates drop to 0%

Growing up as a Catholic, your topics truly facinate me! Don't get me wrong, I also love the other topics you cover. Not just the biblical/religious ones. Thank you for existing!

First time hearing about the Cardinal Virtues. I guess my catholic school was too focused on the seven sins

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS CHANNEL. This is what all churches should be like. Educational, in-depth, with no guilt or forcing a belief, rather just a beautiful analogy into certain themes in The Bible.

This is strangely very humbling

2:10 Iroh from The Last Airbender: “Pride is not the opposite of shame, but it's source. True humility is the only antidote to shame.” P.S. I think that Nikola was an expert in all of the Cardinal Virtues.

I'd like to see writers basing characters on the 7 virtues instead of the 7 deadly sins now

I think the 7 sins and 7 virtues can be summed up in 2 words: selfishness and selflessness. Be truly selfless and you will no doubt avoid committing any of the 7 deadly sins. Your videos are truly fascinating. Keep up the great work!

I'm going into a rabbit hole on your channel. I grew up Christian and let go of it when I turned 20. Learning things from a non-religious perspective just makes SO MUCH SENSE to things. Of course it's all somehow political in my opinion, but the fact that I just heard there are OPPOSITES of the deadly sins, I was mind blown. 19 years of Christianity only had me focusing on the negative parts of religion to makes sure you "stay on the right path." And because of that, it created way too much anxiety within myself that I had to let that shit go. I'm way happier at 25 only worrying about myself and family in my home. No pressure from random beings watching me. But you're very fascinating. Gonna spend my whole night watching your videos😂

“Don’t eat winged creatures like bats” World: I’m a just avoid that

Your deep knowledge of these ancient texts and putting them into context is really, really good dude, please keep up the work

I love the clean editing, conciseness and brevity of this video. It told me what i wanted to know straight away so thanks for that

Glad to have someone explaining the Catholic Church theology in a much simple way. It is usually complicated however I can't say that as we have this great informative channel

The only sin I see is this channel having less than 1M

“I'm very well acquainted with the seven deadly sins I keep a busy schedule trying to fit them in I'm proud to be a glutton and I don't have time for sloth I'm greedy and I'm angry and I don't care who I cross”- Warren Zevon Great video as always!

These 7 sins are called "deadly" because they delineate the mortal realm. If you are truly free from all of them, then the heavens have no reason to burden you with mortality. That is why people with a "calling" as it used to be called, devoted their entire lives to cultivate themselves, to free their hearts and minds of any thoughts of wrath, lust, gluttony, greed, envy, pride and sloth - a lifelong endeavor. To aim for the impossible is quite a feat, but then again, people are known for achieving the impossible. Which is why saints or holy figures in both East and West are depicted with an aureola surrounding them; they've attained a space and state of being where no human sin is able to touch them.
