Answer 1

"Deadly sins?" If you believe in sin than the seven you mentioned covers the spectrum.  If I were to believe in sins than I would have to say there is just one deadly sin in this world and that is "MAN".

Answer 2

Ahh...the seven deadly sins...well, those particular seven behaviors exist whether we believe in the doctrine or not. There isn't a one on the list that is beneficial to the person acting them out or any of the various actions' recipients.

If we are classifying sins as actions that are detrimental to self and others, there are many. The list of seven pretty much covers the broad spectrum, though. Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Pride, Sloth, Wrath, and Envy. Yep, that pretty much sums up the degraded state of humanity. I would be hard pressed to find a destructive or detrimental act that did not boil back down to one of those categories.

Answer 3

Well, I think they're all pretty bad, but will I go to h**l for it?

I don't believe in h**l, so no. But I won't commit those sins, since they are immoral anyway.
