  • I believe that only the Catholic church calls them the 7 deadly sins officially declared that in 590 AD by Pope Gregory I. Others refer to them as the 7 things God hates. They are listed in the Bible at Proverbs 6:16-19: 16 There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: 17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, 18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,feet that are quick to rush into evil, 19 a false witness who pours out lies and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers. They are not all illegal according to civil laws.
