The Seven Deadly Sins are:
Pride
Envy
Gluttony
Lust
Anger
Greed
Sloth
They are "deadly" because they put the soul into danger of going to hell. They kill God's life in our soul.

The seven deadly sins are lust, gluttony, wrath, sloth, envy, greed and pride.
These are called the seven deadly sins because these are the sins that people fall easily into and are very hard to get out of.

Man calls them seven deadly sins, in actuality there are more than seven. In Matthews account he remembered seven that Jesus mentioned, however, Mark remembered more:Murders, fornications, evil thoughts, adulteries,thefts, false witness and blasphemies are mentioned in Matthews. Mark remembered covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, pride and foolishness. The ones man often lists are a someone condensed version of one or the other of these lists.
They are called deadly because they lead to death, not life.

Lust, Anger, Envy, Avarice, Sloth, Pride, and Sadness.
"The Roman Catholic Church divided sin into two principal categories: "venial", which are relatively minor, and could be forgiven through any sacrament of the Church, and the more severe "capital" or "mortal" sins, which, when committed, destroyed the life of grace, and created the threat of eternal damnation unless either absolved through the sacrament of confession, or otherwise forgiven through perfect contrition on the part of the penitent."

They're "deadly" because they lead to sin. I personally think the term is a bit too much, but you still shouldn't commit them.
They aren't sins against other people as much as they are against the soul of the person who does them, and lead to an unhappy life.
They are: sloth, gluttony, lust, envy, wrath, pride (arrogance is a better term here), and greed.

the deadly sins are Pooping, peeing, farting, spitting, sweating, crying, spilling seed, throwing up, burping and bleeding. also menses and popping blisters. shedding skin or hair or fingernails/toenails. all of these things pollute the environment and so necessarily contribute to global warming.

I've done all seven of them today and I'm still alive. I think they were just joking. I don't think Jesus actually said that so I would just ignore the whole thing.

1) Thou shalt not eat spaghetti on Tuesdays, no matter what kind of special is on.
2) Thou shalt not use your 3rd cousin's sisters' bathroom on Fridays.
3) Never stop mocking others for their beliefs.
4) Only wipe your @$$ on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
That's all I got.
