Whenever we see restless hearts, human discontent, bias, disrespect, marginalization, oppression, and every form of injustice and hatred, there we may also see the seeds of the 7 Deadly Sins.
These vices are the interior attitudes that form the heart of darkness and the antithesis of generosity, compassion, and self-sacrificial love. Where did these sins come from? Do they have biblical foundations? How dangerous are these sins, and what effect do they have on our lives? Fr. Spitzer covers this and more as he addresses five of the sins: gluttony, greed, lust, sloth, and vanity.
