Why do people try to answer questions they have NO clue about?
Yom Kippur is a Hebrew Day of Atonement.
There are around 6 or 7 theories on Christ's atonement for our sins.
Ransom. Christ was the ransom for our sins.
Satisfaction. Christ was the only satisfactory sacrifice (in Old Testament terms, the perfect unblemished lamb)
Penal-Substitution. Christ took our sins upon himself.
Moral Example. Christ died as a perfect example for us.
Governmental. God made Christ an example of suffering for our benefit.
Victory. Christ died as a victory of good over evil.

I don't know what those are. Are you sure you are not talking about the 7 deadly sins the catholic church made up?
Never in my lifetime as a christian, have I ever ran into that. You got me curious I am going to see if I can find something. But I don't think they exist.

I guess you mean "7 deadly sins of Christianity". And the are:
1. Lust
2. Gluttony
3. Greed
4. Sloth (i.e. laziness)
5. Wrath
6. Envy (i.e. jealousy)
7. Pride (i.e arrogance)
