This is a bit far fetched. The Bible lists the 10 commandments, not those 7 deadly sins. Those 7 deadly sins originated with the monk Evagrius Ponticus in the 4th Century, and have no specific mention in Biblical canon. The seven deadly sins we take after are listed in Proverbs, bucs. These are the seven things God hates and see as an abomination:
1. A proud look
2. A lying tongue
3. Hands that shed innocent blood
4. A heart that devises wicked plots
5. Feet that are swift to run into mischief
6. A deceitful witness that uttereth lies
7. Him that soweth discord among brethren
Likewise, another longer list, given this time by the Epistle to the Galatians (Galatians 5:19-21), includes more of the traditional seven sins: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, "and such like". Paul goes on to say that those of us who practice these sins will not inherit the kingdom of God, HOWEVER, we can seek forgiveness of these sins to avoid paying the price.
You mischaracterize Christianity, bucs and I resent that deeply.
Wow, each of those applies to the Obama administration.
1. His proud look, like the arrogant pose at the inauguration and many times since with his nose up in the air.
2. "If you like your plan and your doctor, you can keep it. Period." Liar, liar, pants on fire.
3. Sending weapons to known terrorists, like the Muslim Brotherhood, which were used to kill. Fast and Furious weapons that were used to kill. Might as well have pulled the trigger. I might add late term abortions. Death panels in Obamacare and cancer patients with nothing now. Basically, his foreign policy encourages terrorists and radicals to kill.
4. Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the takeover of healthcare, bigger government, et al. Those are all wicked plots that became reality. He'll have more flexibility after the election. Plotting all the time.
5. Obama is already looking to do more damage by ignoring the constitution with his executive orders. He thinks he is the law now and will do whatever he wants.
6. Yea, it was just some protestors upset over a video. He knows nothing about nothing. Saw it on the news. Yea, that's the ticket.
7. The racial divide is deeper and more volatile than ever before.
Of course, Obama smokes and used to do drugs, according to his book. Gotta say, according to Biden, Obama is the first clean and articulate black man in Washington so he's got that going for him. The lavish vacations taken by the Obamas in this miserable economy is a slap in the face.
