The 8th Sin
16 years ago
I actually had a book in mind that searched around the theory of "The 8th Sin," and it's gotten into my brain to try and figure out whether or not my enterpretation is good enough to work with, or if I'm just being redundent.
My 8th of 7 sins? Evil. Just pure evil. The act of committing evil for the sake of doing evil...but maybe I'm being stupid, perhaps the true 8th sin is really something like...corruption, or false virtue...or hell, maybe it's furbies.
Anyone wanna play this game with me?
P.S: Elements 6.0 is as crappy in my hands as I remember it. Gonna try to get the spare change of a measely $58 to pay for Paint Tool SAI, but right now, until donation jar's filled up by my own pocket, I will use this time to focus on writing rather than art...so ironic.

Pride,
Vain glory,
sorrow,
laziness
greed,
gluttony,
lust,
Back then, envy didn't show, and later on, sorrow and laziness became sloth, while Vain Glory merged with Pride so Envy could be the seventh sin.
It's on youtube under <sin> history channel. All seven episodes.
