hmmm very good question.
well. . .gluttony can kill you since you get super fat and unhealthy so thats pretty deadly.
envy can drive you to murder so thats pretty deadly too.
lust can get you murdered if you lust towards the wrong person.
greed can drive you to becoming a hermit since you dont want people to have anything. so thats pretty dangerous.
sloth can lead you to about a thousand diseases.
wrath is just horrible really. and leads to blood splatter.
pride is bad seeing that it can get you to picking the wrong fight and getting shot in the head.. .

i say wrath is the deadliest.

Lust. Without lust we'd have gone extinct. Not a deadly sin but a vital virtue.Gluttony- has it's down side ( death by obesity related illness) but has it's upside ( survival of famine ). Greed. If this is sin then America might as well just build an escalator to Hell.Sloth- not working yourself to death is a deadly sin? What if it lets you spend more time with your kids? What about working on sunday? Sloth does have some survival downs but conserving energy is often a good idea.Wrath- or Revenge if I may- Well, this is what you get when people are more interested in themselves than in others. The alternative to Wrath is Communism. I'm a fan of Communism but I understand it's not for everyone and I wouldn't want the forced version. Envy. Not much to say on Envy. Kinda tapped out. Pride. 2 types: the 'We're #1!' type which ignores our **** ups. and the 'gotta clean up my nation so it'll look nice for the immigrants when they arrive' kind which I admire. Or do I have Pride confused with Patriotism? Oh well.Me? I don't kick puppies ( except on y?aR/S ). This is a metaphor for 'I follow my conscience until it intrudes on my survival or comfort or luxury'- usually. And I also literally don't kick puppies.

Pride-......Because pride will lead people to Lust, Envy, Wrath, Greed, Sloth, and Gluttony. I would say that is the most deadliest of the 7 sins since it pushes you towards behaviors that make you commit the other 6 sins.

Wrath.
I happen to like lust, can live with sloth and have a flirtation with vanity (the pain involved in grooming proves it). I don't think gluttony hurts anybody other than the person indulging it (and perhaps their SO) and some smidgen of greed is necessary to get many people out of bed and to work in the morning. Pride... It was considered the most serious of the cardinal sins, you know? I can't understand why. We take pride in the things we do, we want our parents to be proud of us... I guess the Bible takes it to heart because of old Lucifer and how he ended up reigning in hell instead of serving in Heaven... Envy is a good contender and it can lead to some nasty things. But when you look at it, wrath is the one that usually leads to some very ugly results.

I think the deadliest sin is relying on religious writings from barbaric ages for our morality, instead of thinking for ourselves.

I think PRIDE often leads to all other sins. Pride may cause someone to overindulge in empowering devices, and envy others and become wrathful towards those who challenge their pride. Pride leads to war, greed, corruption of power.
