The Seven Deadly Sins and the Tao Nora Wise

The Seven Deadly Sins-pride, envy, lust, wrath, greed, gluttony, and sloth-have their origin from the Bible, even though the Bible doesn't have any specific reference to them. This book is not about the Bible; it is not about God-whether you believe in His existence or not. Neither is this book about the TAO, which is the ancient wisdom from China more than 2,600 years ago. This book is all about you-how you should live and survive in this secular material world. It's your blueprint to live in this world as if everything is a miracle through your self-intuition of all the questions and answers with respect to the Seven Deadly Sins. This book is all about asking many questions and seeking answers regarding how and why real people in real life commit the Seven Deadly Sins. Charles Proteus Steinmetz, a German-born American mathematician and electrical engineer, once said: "There are no foolish questions and no one becomes a fool until he has stopped asking questions."It must be pointed out that we all have committed the Seven Deadly Sins in our lives. But looking at examples of real people in real life may help us not only reflect on our own Seven Deadly Sins, but also avoid them, instead of continuing to indulge and wallow in them. The fact of the matter is that the Seven Deadly Sins make us live only n fancy and fantasy, instead of living in reality.
