In [[Christian]] tradition, the '''Seven Deadly Sins''' are considered to be the seven worst sins, which lead to damnation. They are:
*[[Pride]] (or Vainglory)
*[[Pride]] (or Vainglory)
*[[Envy]]
*[[Envy]]
*[[Gluttony]]
*[[Gluttony]]
*[[Lust]]
*[[Lust]]
*[[Wrath|Anger]]
*[[Wrath|Anger]]
*[[Greed|Avarice]] (or Covetousness)
*[[Greed|Avarice]] (or Covetousness)
*[[Sloth (sin)|Sloth]] (or Acedia)
*[[Sloth (sin)|Sloth]] (or Acedia)
The [[Bible]] does not list them in this form, but they are commonly found in Medieval and [[Renaissance]] thought. Personifications or depictions of the seven sins (and their punishments in [[Hell]]) are also common in the art and literature of these periods, sometimes contrasted with the seven cardinal [[virtue]]s.
