Now for the conundrum to end all conundrums: Did I just create an 8th deadly sin, or are there now just SIX deadly sins? I vote for the latter, and here's why:
1) Lust and envy are the two lamest, weakest of the deadly sins. They should only count as "deadly" if you're doing them both at the same time. Even that's a bit of a stretch. "I'm horny because some hottie's got me all riled up, and on top of that I'm jealous that others have been with said individual, but not me!" That's basically Lenvy in a nutshell, and it doesn't sound very "deadly" to me. You know what is way worse than Lenvy, death-wise? Bee stings!!
2) I suppose six is a nice round number, but we could always add a 7th if we wanted. How does this sound? "Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Lenvy, Wrath and Not Waiting At Least an Hour After You Eat Before Swimming."
3) After the pope, the dalai lama and the chief Jew issue a ruling that Lust and Envy have been combined to Lenvy, hopefully the pope will say "Now that's what I call sinnergy!"
You're welcome.
