doesn't that add up to way over 100% if they're fractions of sin? does it mean you're 38% greedy and 62% not greedy? i totally don't get these percentages. |

Greed is my 3rd worst sin (though under 50% -- whatever that means) while Envy was dead last. I'm sure that if I had taken this same test 10~15 years ago, those two sins would have been much higher on the list, their percentages would have been higher, and I imagine my Envy would have exceeded my Greed.
So, what happened?
Just time, really. Some of my goals and wants changed over time, some become patently unrealistic, others I simply valued them less as I knew more about them, more about myself & my priorities. Sometimes I discovered that certain goals weren't worth the sacrifices & tradeoffs required to obtain them.
But more importantly, time reduced my Envy & Greed by allowing me to work more, earn more, save more and invest more. That naturally brings many things I'd envied others of within my financial reach. It also freed me from having to do work I'd rather not for people I'd rather not. |

It means you answered 44% of the lust questions affirmatively, 38% of the greed questions, etc. |

This is interesting I chose Lust and voted before I saw the link and took the quiz. Really sad  I guess my first clue should have been the immense space used by the my pictures folder on my comp which is all my favorite male celebrities (makes a good slideshow/screensaver)
Lust-- 63%
Gluttony-- 56%
Sloth-- 50%
Wrath-- 25%
Greed-- 25%
Pride-- 25%
Envy-- 6% |

Lust 69% (Hmmm....is 69 just a coincidence) 
Envy 69%
Sloth 50%
Greed 31%
Gluttony 25%
Pride 6%
Wrath 0%
This test is probably a bit skewed for me right now. Over the summer camp I spend quite a bit of time with our school administrator who is one of the most gorgeous creatures I've ever seen. My mind is permanently in the gutter when I'm around her. If only Scotty would beam up her boyfriend forever.  |

I just don't agree with some of these results.
Sloth - 75% - I'm pretty active.
Envy - 75% - This parts true.
Pride - 56% - Also true.
Gluttony - 44% - So I go upto the buffet more than once - who doesn't?
Wrath - 19% - I voted this way and I stand by it. It's the worst sin and my cryptonite.
Greed - 6% - Also true.
Lust - 6% - What can I say here?
They'll be getting a letter from me if when my shows are over. |
