unbelief--the root of all

Pride. Like the Pride that is displayed when a believer thinks non-belief is the root of all sins, even though believers sin all the time, especially by thinking they are more moral than a non-believer, which goes back to pride! I can't stand that one!!! Thinking that because you believe in God you are free of sin, and have the right to judge!
Non-belief is not the root of all sins, because EVERY one sins, including those who believe!! Selfish desires are the root of all sins. It is selfish to think you are above any one. It's selfish to take the life of another person. It is selfish to be greedy, and not share. It's selfish to give into lustful desires. It is selfish to be apathetic. And it is selfish to worship Jesus only because you want to save your soul and are afraid of Hell, or to be good because you think you'll get a reward! It is wrong to live for the self.
It is right to be selfless. To do things that help the community, and improve the world. It's selfless to save lives, to share, to humble yourself, to get up and actively participate in the world. I'm not saying you can't be selfish sometimes and do things for yourself, as long as those actions do not negatively effect another person, and you have a balance between (harmless) selfish desires and selfless acts.
But pride is the worst! It's the one that says all other lives are not as worthy. That other people are beneath them. Which could easily lead to taking lives (even for a righteous cause, or just because they can), taking money (because I deserve it, and these meaningless people don't), and, well just about any other selfish desire. It's the most selfish sin of all!

Lying - look at all the lies that creationist websites and books push out as "science" and real quotes. They lie even thought their "claims" have been debunked many times but they keep at it.

taking the Lord's name in vain--if you say god damn it, and he actually does damn it, then it's not in vain, if you sak god to save your child from leukemia, and he does not, then it is in vain--God MAKES you take his name in vain or not ever say it at all

Sending your child to "anti-gay" therapy.
Honestly, it's freaking sick.
