● [ . The Growl of the Seven Sins . ] @ Wednesday, June 20, 2007 ●
Heard of the seven sins? :3
For FMA fans, I know you know about it but those who DON'T know, go Wikipedia. <3
Joking. Apparently, in this world, there are seven sins. Extracted from Wiki-wiki ( ... Nickname I gave it. :D ) Here are the Seven Sins: Luxuria (extravagance, later lust), Gula (gluttony), Avaritia (greed), Acedia (sloth), Ira (wrath), Invidia (envy), and Superbia (pride).
Lust ( Latin = Luxuria )
Lust is usually thought of as involving obsessive or excessive thoughts or desires of a sexual nature. Unfulfilled lusts sometimes lead to sexual or sociological compulsions and/or transgressions including (but obviously not limited to) sexual addiction, adultery, bestiality, and rape.
Gluttony ( Latin = Gula )
Modern views identify Gluttony with an overindulgence of food and drink, though in the past any form of thoughtless excess could fall within the definition of this sin. Marked by unreasonable or unnecessary excess of consumption, Gluttony could also include certain forms of destructive behavior, especially for sport, or for its own sake.
Greed ( Latin = Avaritia )( Ooo, my favourite. <3 )
Greed is, like Lust and Gluttony, a sin of excess. However, Greed (as seen by the Church) applied to the acquisition of wealth in particular. Thomas Aquinas wrote that Greed was "a sin against God, just as all mortal sins, in as much as man condemns things eternal for the sake of temporal things." In Dante's Purgatory, the penitents were bound and laid face down on the ground for having concentrated too much on earthly thoughts. "Avarice" is more of a blanket term that can describe many other examples of sinful behavior.
Sloth ( Latin = Acedia )
More than other sins, the definition of Sloth has changed considerably since its original inclusion among the seven deadly sins. It had been in the early years of Christianity characterized by what modern writers would now describe as apathy, depression, and joylessness — the latter being viewed as being a refusal to enjoy the goodness of God and the world He created. Originally, its place was fulfilled by two other aspects, Acedia and Sadness. The former described a spiritual apathy that affected the faithful by discouraging them from their religious work. Sadness (tristitia in Latin) described a feeling of dissatisfaction or discontent, which caused unhappiness with one's current situation.
Wrath ( Latin = Ira )
Wrath may be described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger. These feelings can manifest as vehement denial of the truth, both to others and in the form of self-denial, impatience with the procedure of law, and the desire to seek revenge outside of the workings of the justice system (such as engaging in vigilantism) and generally wishing to do evil or harm to others.
Envy ( Latin = Invidia )( Ooo, this is my favourite too! )
Like Greed, Envy is characterized by an insatiable desire; they differ, however, for two main reasons: First, Greed is largely associated with material goods, whereas Envy may apply more generally. Second, those who commit the sin of Envy desire something that someone else has which they perceive themselves as lacking. Dante defined this as "love of one's own good perverted to a desire to deprive other men of theirs." In Dante's Purgatory, the punishment for the envious is to have their eyes sewn shut with wire, because they have gained sinful pleasure from seeing others brought lowly.
Pride ( Latin = Superbia )
In almost every list Pride is considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins, and indeed the ultimate source from which the others arise. It is identified as a desire to be more important or attractive than others, failing to give compliments to others though they may be deserving of them, and excessive love of self (especially holding self out of proper position toward God).
All informations are extracted from Wiki-wiki. :3
According to Light-kun, he said everyone has at least one of them. I have Greed and Pride. So, practically, I am a show-off ( Sad to say. =x )and greedy. Rawr. Anyway, Cosplay event is on 7th July! EMDD corrupted it. T_T

Okay, for lyrics, it is Ali Project again. Yes, Ryuuna, I am going to make you angry for today. <3
ALI PROJECT - Hizamazuite Ashi wo Oname ( Get Down On Your Knees And Lick My Feet )
Get down on your knees and lick them - my crimson nails
Use your tangled tongue
And call me your beloved queen...
The sun that blooms in hell
The darkness that from paradise
Their radiance and their despair
Which of the two is more intense?
Inside my head I'm falling apart!
And the licking is killing my smile!
Both the dream-like aching of my wounds
And the stubborn dripping of my blood
Pierce through to the bottom of my soul
They're sacrifices offered up to you
What you're searching for... could it be more love?
How much can a guy bear to sit and watch?
Aren't you quite the thoughtless child!
Get down on your knees and lick them - my holy feet
Use your sliced throat
And call me your beloved queen
The proof of life is a soaring tower of pure pain
Ah! Raise your hands, even if feebly
Nevertheless, to beg of me!
My frozen tears, should they come to melt and fade away
You will then find out that you have spoken your last words... Ah...
Lust and the sadist eye
Ihe humilliation that was pressing you down
And sadly looking at a valley of ecstasy
Was the reflection of happiness
An explosion from the core of my body!
It's at the summit; there is no escape!
The fragility of spider's threads
That connect and decieve to the maximum
(Next 2 lines missing)
The unbelievable is already nothing, and for it not to be that way
I can't believe that it's love that you need to distrust!
Till when are women going to be such stupid living things?!
Get down on your knees and offer yourself - you'll become eternal
Use that thirsty throat of yours
And call me your mother
The proof of life is the sound of a whip that is cracking
Count, and pull it tighter, and fear
Nevertheless, to beg of me!
The jewel smeared with dirt that is known as purity
With this hand, I could force it to be cast away...
Lie down and ask of me with that sweet tongue
Use that nice voice; sing my bird
And call me your big sister
Get down on your knees and lick them - my holy feet
Use your sliced throat
And call me your beloved queen
The proof of life is a soaring tower of pure pain
Ah! Raise your hands, even if feebly
Nevertheless, if you start falling in love!
Whatever unties my frozen heart
Will once again, be your awakening eye...
