Why is this not in the Religion forum where people can post how appalled they are that Colson would claim there are 7 deadly sins? Why 7 and not 6? or even 8?
Are what are the virtues?
1. Faith is belief in the right things (including the virtues!).
2. Hope is taking a positive future view, that good will prevail.
3. Charity (Love) is concern for, and active helping of, others.
4. Fortitude is never giving up.
5. Justice is being fair and equitable with others.
6. Prudence is care of and moderation with money.
7. Temperance is moderation of needed things and abstinence from things which are not needed.
IMHO, this is a thread that is appropriate in any and all forums. FReeregards.
