I think that's a very important point."The problem with [manifesting any of the 7 deadly sins] comes from degree.
A little bit can be understood as just being human.
But the problem comes when one shows a total indifference to the suffering of others, like murdering those people in the fastboats near Venezuela." R5 #280
Pride in workmanship for example, or a well deserved reputation for being a benefit to the community, not sure that's a sin at all, let alone a "deadly" sin.
"Gluttony" is intrinsically excessive. We all eat, but not all eat to corpulence.
As you know R5, I'm not all that enthusiastic about the supernatural guy in the sky stuff.
But I think despite obvious shortcomings, this basic guidance at least seems to me to be well-intended.
