Isn't this some sort of sin or something?

[–] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

It is but before we go there, it seems that those who would care, don't

It wouldn't be the first or the gravest sin you could blame on him

Thing about Trump- he is all seven deadly sins in one convenient package!

Well, idk about sin. But a false prophet is a herald of- or is himself the Antichrist.

It's so weird.

Literally violating the first or second commandment (depending on the source), that prohibits idolatry. So yes, 100% a sin.

Also the sin of pride. As if he wasn't in constant violation of all 7 deadly (if only) sins. What, lust, greed, envy, gluttony, sloth, wrath, and Pride as the case may primarily be.

I am not very well versed in the Bible. Are the 7 deadly sins actually canon (as in they are mentioned in the book), or is it more of a "modern" invention?

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Honestly, I am the least informed person on the Bible. Nevertheless, I have picked up a few things, some from South park, other is from just daily use which includes the seven deadly sins, wish I had to look up to be clear.

But one can hardly not have learned these seven deadly sins going to church or no, which I have a half dozen times in my life.

It is sacriligious, not greed or envy, what is it called, like conceit, 'Seven deadly sins - Wikipedia

Definitions and perspectives · Lust · Gluttony · Greed · Sloth · Wrath · Envy · Pride. edit. Main article: Pride. Detail of Pride from The Seven Deadly Sins and ...'

Pride.
