They are listed as the seven deadly sins. Which, if any, of the seven deadly sins do you feel are bad?
I keep my faith private, so I won't common on whether or not they are "sins", but I think a few of these are bad just on points of practicality.

First of all, to me sloth (by definition) means you accomplish nothing, and I regard accomplishing things as a good thing. So, since sloth means means you aren't accomplishing something, then I think it's "bad".

Second, gluttony should eventually put you in poor health, and I view better health to be a good thing, so I view it as bad.

Third, I find envy and pride accomplishes nothing, so referring back to point one, I view it to be "bad".
