Yeah, I also selected that picture, but I didn't notice it was a vaguely sexy lady in low light until I had chosen it. It just looked moody, which appealled to me.

I am most guilty of:

 

Oh dear......

 Mine were lust, greed, gluttony, wrath and sloth.

  Well, my slothfulness prevents that. I've just had more time to work on these kinds of things. 

 

  Just kidding. Actually I got lust too. I think that might be the only answer.

 

 

  Have you ever done the Dante's inferno quiz? It's kind of related to the seven sins. It tells you what level of hell you might end up on. Somehow I just missed level 2 (lust) on that one and then ended up getting sent all the way down to level 6 (heretics).

Oh that is NOT meant to be taken on a phone!  It made me feel like I was Joe Biden's age looking at all those tiny letters.

    Oh sorry, yeah there's a lot of questions I guess. Took me a few minutes to do on a PC. I wouldn't want to try it on a phone.

  Wow. At least you're not greedy.  You can almost go to any level you want. 

 

  Mine was more straight forward. To get from level 6 to level 2,  I either need to become more religious or more lustful. I think that's an easy choice.

This is fascinating, and actually an excellent self-check.

 

Level 1 = Very High

Level 2 = High

Levels 6, 9 = Very Low

All others = Low

 

Sorry to report that we are apparently nearly a saint, but we Advanced Simians often are, si man.

-------

Level 2 is Limbo, which immediately brought to mind the skit from The Muppet Show with the immortal song:

Limbo

Everybody limbo

Limbo

All the day.

Miss Piggy had an extremely rough time going under the limbo pole.  Sure wish that I had some link to that skit...

  Interesting that in Dante's time, sloth was used more to refer to spiritual laziness, so the concept was more closely related to heresy. There isn't really a level defined for laziness. Seems modern (physically lazy) sloths would get a free pass in Dante's inferno.
