The true deadly sins
Lust
Not a sin- feeling sexual attraction, sex with consenting partners, masturbation, consuming pornographic media, having several sexual partners, sex before mariage.
IT’S A SIN WHEN- the person projects lust onto an unwilling recipient person and does not take into account their wants or consent. Rape, harassment, sexual assault, catcalling, dick pics.
Gluttony
Not a sin- food, enjoying food, cooking, eating sweets, eating meat. In the larger sense, accumulating material things you enjoy, like books or collectibles or whatever.
IT’S A SIN WHEN- It deprives other people of what they need.
Envy
Not a sin: Wanting things you see other people have, like money, power, fame.
IT’S A SIN WHEN: This is how you define people, and stop respecting them as humans. It’s a sin when you use them for what they have and what they can bring you.
Greed
Not a sin: Wanting financial security, working hard for the things you want.
IT’S A SIN WHEN: Your own financial growth depends on keeping other people impoverished and suffering.
Pride
Not a sin: Being proud of your accomplishments, liking your looks, dressing up
IT’S A SIN WHEN: It stops you from accepting your faults and seeing how you can be wrong, not admitting that you can better yourself.
Wrath
Not a sin: Righteous anger at situations, being mistreated, seeing other people suffer, at the injustice of the world. Self-defense. Revolution.
IT’S A SIN WHEN: Violence towards defenceless people, hitting your partner or your kids,. Violence fuelled by intolerance and bigotry.
Sloth
Not a sin: Resting. Sleeping. Taking a day or a year off. Being unproductive. Playing videogames.
IT’S A SIN WHEN: You stay inactive when action is required. When people need you and you’d rather do nothing.
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT AND GIVES POWER BACK TO SO MANY PEOPLE
I feel like this is what God/Jesus actually meant and then we/the bible/christians twisted it into unfair and unrealistic standards and it’s not right.

Look it up, y'all, Jesus literally said that looking at a person with lust in your heart is the same sin as the Commandment against adultery.
Covetousness is also literally wanting what someone else has, which is another of the Ten Commandments.
In the same vein as lust, unproductivity is one of the actions that was condemned by Solomon, whom God blessed to be the wisest man literally ever.
Gluttony is a type of materialism. That means that gluttons value material things over God, which is a direct violation of the most important of the Ten Commandments.
Jesus condemned the act of HOLDING A GRUDGE as being the same type of sin as MURDER.
If you’re gonna preach Biblical teachings, read the damn Book first. And I’m not saying I’m totally innocent either, but come on y'all.
