The Seven Deadly Sins: A Different Look
Hieronymus Bosch's 1485AD Late Gothic Portrait, "The Seven Deadly Sins" (Prado Museum, Madrid)
In the Catholic tradition, the Seven Deadly sins are gluttony, greed, sloth, anger, vanity, lust, and envy. A couple of years ago, sitting in a restaurant in Mobile, Alabama, a sign caught my eye, declaring a different set of deadly sins. I pass them on for you to ponder:
The Seven Deadly Sins
- Politics without principle.
- Wealth without work.
- Pleasure without conscience.
- Knowledge without character
- Business without morality.
- Science without humanity.
- Worship without sacrifice.
