I have had struggles in the greed and sloth areas. I have a tendency to look at new homes dream about having a new home to decorate. Being an artist I am always thinking of creative things.
I have a problem with procrastination, especially towards things that seem mundane like doing dishes by hand and I miss having a dishwasher and am Envious once again towards those that do have them.

Actually I am guitly of all and none, because in my mind I do what Jesus requires, accept Jesus Christ for what he did and he commanded us to be perfect so I do this also. Paul teaches us to become all things that we might win some to Jesus so if your a sinner so am I if your lustful so am I if your a pig so am I if you lust then so do I more if your angry so can I if your lazy then so I am I more.
Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Luke 6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Philippians 3:8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
1 Corinthians 3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

Well as much as i hate to admit it i would have to say greed would be the one that I am the worst yet. I think the whole world is too materialistic. I catch myself quite often wanting items and such. Not so much ignoring the realm of the spiritual just sometimes worrying too much on what i dont have. Its bad but at least i can admit it

It depends on my hormones, my genetics and the way I was raised.
When I'm hormonal, it can be one or all of the above at any given time......
Jeez, look at these lusty young girls......I envy their horniness. I used to be horny before I had kids,
now I have like no sex drive AT ALL. So, so much for committing that "sin" anymore.
... give me some of your lust girls, I'd gladly take it.
I'm just glad while I had the opportunity, while I wanted sex, I actually had it. I lived it up. I'm so glad I did because, girls, it doesn't last forever. You become dried up and frigid before you know it..,....and let me tell you from experience, having sex when you are 'lusty" is soooooo much better and more gratifying than forcing yourself to feel sexual when ya got lots of kids and you're married forever in your boring sex life.
live it up.

Oh, dear. I guess that's got to be sloth. I really should be doing the laundry right now...
Yeah, thinking on it. Definitely sloth. I've even been known to IM my husband when his office is right down the hall. How lazy is that?
ETA - I see I'm not the only one avoiding the laundry. *snirt*

I am not Chritian and I don't believe these things are deadly sins but I would say I am most "guilty" of lust, then next would probably be sloth or anger. I guess I'm going to hell now! Oh, well.

PRIDE, which leads to blasphemy against God.
