The seven deadly sins are not a Bible deal. It is a man made scripture like. "GOD helps those who help themselves."
There is something close in proverbs.
Pro 6:16 These six [things] doth the LORD hate: yea, seven [are] an abomination unto him:
Pro 6:17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
Pro 6:18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
Pro 6:19 A false witness [that] speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

The Bible gives no such list - no such title. The Catholic church invented that list-- the Bible was not it's source.
The Bible, God's teachings, will inevitably be different from the offerings of man-made religion, and eternally trustworthy, since they are from God. God's list of abominable sins- from
Proverbs 6:16-19 (New King James Version)
These six things the LORD hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
17 A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
18 A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
19 A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren.
Hope this helps.

The seven deadly sins, more properly called the seven capital sins, are the sins to which we are most susceptible because of our fallen human nature. They are the tendencies that cause us to commit all other sins. They are called "deadly" because, if we engage in them willingly, they deprive us of sanctifying grace, the life of God in our souls.
The seven deadly sins are pride, covetousness (also known as avarice or greed), lust, anger, gluttony, envy, and sloth.
Peace and every blessing!

Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.
Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.
Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.
Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.
And was your name calling really necessary?

All sin is deadly - there is no such thing as a certain number of deadly sins.
Christ died for every sin ever committed. Can't get more deadly than that.
By the way, I never thumped my Bible - I have more respect for God's word than that.

opening the door to Jehovah's Witnesses
not inserting god or jesus into other's otherwise secular day
telling people who question your faith that it's ok to do so
reading other literature to try and prove bible, or failing to use bible to prove itself
like the good secular Samaritan, actually helping unbelievers or sinners in thier plight
getting an associate degree or any education from a non accredited dominion or faith based contrived school
listening to others' point of view

The ones we learned in college were pride, envy, avarice, sloth, anger, lust and gluttony.
Galatians 5 lists the acts of the sinful nature as sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery, idolatry and witchcraft, hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy, drunkenness, orgies, etc.

I can only think of one.
Refusing to accept the free gift of salvation for which Jesus provides.
This is also the "unpardonable sin" -- Not because you can't be forgiven but rather you won't allow yourself to be forgiven.
