There are seven virtues and they are: - Faith
- Hope
- Love
- Prudence GOOD
- Justice
- Fortitude
- Temperance
The opposite to the virtues are the Seven deadly sins: - Pride
- Envy
- Lust
- Anger BAD
- Greed
- Slothfulness
- Gluttony
Why do we have seven of each?
We have seven of each because God made the world in 6 days and 1 to rest, 7 days - 7 sins & virtues
Why is it important to have a balance between sins and virtues in our lives?
To keep everything even, so no ones perfect but not evil either. It makes everyone equals.
This means that as humans will always have something to improve about ourselves.
Think of one "big evil" event in the world or "one evil person" and explain which seven deadly sins effected that event or person?
I chose World War 1 as it was a big evil event in the world. World War 1 was affected by four of the seven deadly sins, they where: Greed, Pride, Envy, Anger.
Think of a role model that you know that lives out the virtues
A good role model that I know of is Mother Teresa. Mother Teresa was a nun who gave up everything and went over to India to helping the poor. She started up a group called Mission of Charity – a congregation dedicated to caring for “the hungry, the naked, the homeless, the crippled, the blind, the lepers and any others in need of help." Mother Teresa displayed all the virtues in her everyday life thus making her a good role model.
