Pride is my favourite. I commit that sin frequently.

The seven deadly sins are often associated with certain colors and animals:
Pride: violet and horse
Envy: green and dog
Wrath: red and bear
Sloth: light blue and goat
Greed: yellow and frog
Gluttony: orange and pig
Lust: blue and cow

Not sure about picking a 'favourite'. What is considered "sinful" by one person may be considered "virtuous" by another person, and humans have a nasty tendency judging the appearance of behaviour rather than the actual behaviour.

If I had to pick one, I'd go with Lust. Since sex is one of the areas most likely to be commented on by the uninformed, it would be the one I was condemned for no matter how much or how little sex I was having.

I really enjoy them all but try unsuccessfully to enjoy them in moderation. With the advent of Yahoo Answers, sloth is my dominant vice at this time.

I'd have to say lust, it's a hard one to beat.
Sorry, I don't know the animal that represents that.

There is no such thing as sin, but I'll have fun with the question.

Sex, of course, for the obvious reason.

Is hedonism a sin? I believe there was an animal... a satyr... that represented wine, sex, and merriment. I kinda like him...

Lust was.....I'm older now.

Now it's Gluttony. Not my "favorite" - but the hardest to beat.

Adultery, of course. I like sex. As for an animal, I haven't a clue.

Are you for real!?!?!?! No sin is my favorite. I hate them all. I hate it when I commit a sin and when others commit sins. Why would a person have a favorite sin? Why not ask us what our favorite virtue is instead.

This is exactly what Satan will ask you once you are judged according to your works.......................


just kiddin' it's just an illogical, crazy question? "your favorite sin" See you enjoy sin. You live to sin and have learned to enjoy it. Do you understand how sick and perverse that is................not to mention...sadddddddd that a lot of people will actually give you an answer.......
