Never mind sloth, lust and gluttony ...
but look out if you're a cruel, bigoted adulterer.
"Stay in bed all day, gorge yourself on chocolate and lust as much as you want -- it's not going to land you in hell.
"Most people believe the seven deadly sins are out of date, and that traditional transgressions such as sloth, gluttony and lust should not stop you passing through the pearly gates.
"Cruelty is considered the worst sin anyone can commit nowadays, followed by adultery, bigotry, dishonesty, hypocrisy and selfishness. Of the seven deadly sins enumerated in their present form by Thomas Aquinas in the 13th century, only greed is still viewed as a reliable passport to eternal damnation."
Seven deadly sins: 1 Pride 2 Envy 3 Anger 4 Sloth 5 Greed 6 Gluttony 7 Lust
New sins: 1 Cruelty 2 Adultery 3 Bigotry 4 Dishonesty 5 Hypocrisy 6 Greed 7 Selfishness
