The seven deadly sins, also known as the capital vices or cardinal sins, are a classification of vices used in early Christian teachings to educate and protect followers from (immoral) fallen man's tendency to sin.

The Roman Catholic Church divides sin into two types: venial (forgiven through any sacramental) and capital or mortal (meaning they can kill the life of grace and risk eternal damnation unless absolved in the sacrament of confession). Beginning in the early 14th century, the popularity of the seven deadly sins with artists of the time ingrained them in human culture around the world.

Listed in the same order used by both Pope Gregory the Great in the 6th Century AD and Dante Alighieri, the seven deadly sins are as follows:
luxuria (extravagance, later lust)
gula (gluttony),
avaritia (avarice/greed),
acedia (sloth),
ira (wrath),
invidia (envy),
superbia (pride/hubris).

Each deadly sin is opposed by one of the corresponding Seven Holy Virtues.

The identification and definition of the Sins is a fluid process and, like many aspects of religion, the idea of what each sin encompasses has changed over time. This was exacerbated by the fact that the Sins are not considered in a structured manner in the Bible, and works referencing the sins were gradually considered sources for others to base their definitions on. The second section of the Divine Comedy, Purgatorio, is the most well known source for defining the sins, though modern interpretations often show those guilty of the Sins suffering in Hell, not purifying themselves in Purgatory.

They are found in the Bible and identified as the 7 sins detestable to God. (Proverbs 6:16-19) No mention of deadly.

None. The "Seven Deadly Sins" were compiled in the middle ages as a guide for monks having trouble with their meditation and vows. It was not intended for Christians in general. But monks were so admired for their stoicism that people wanted their own version. So with a few changes (like Sadness changed to Sloth), the list was circulated as a guide to morality. It was never considered scriptural.

All sins are equal in the eyes of God. The catholics believe in the 7 deadly sins, just so priests can get drunk! Alchol is a sin!

No book of the Bible has them. They are from a fiction story. The Bible says only one sin is unforgivable—and that is the sin of refusing God's forgiveness. If we turn our backs on God and refuse to have anything to do with Him, then we will eventually pay the consequences for our stubbornness.

But it doesn't need to be this way! God is our loving Heavenly Father, and He yearns to forgive us and welcome us back to Himself. He loves us so much that He has done everything possible to win us back, by sending His only Son into the world to pay the price for our sins. We deserve to die for our sins—but when Christ died on the cross, all our sins were placed in Him, and He took the punishment we deserve. The Bible says, "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8).

Jesus warned, "Whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; he is guilty of an eternal sin" (Mark 3:29). Blaspheming the Holy Spirit simply means saying that what the Holy Spirit says in the Scriptures about Christ is false. When we do that, we reject Christ and all He has done for us—and we are committing the only unforgivable sin.

May that not happen to you, or to anyone else reading this column. Instead, turn to Christ and by a simple prayer of faith invite Him into your life today. Jesus' promise is for you: "Whoever comes to me I will never drive away" (John 6:37).

none, the list was compiled after the list of bible gospels was set.

The Bible has these sins in it, just not as a single list.
