Salutation, SR Tribe! Welcome, and thank you for coming back for another hearty serving of The Sophisticatedly Ratchet Podcast, giving the real in a world of fake.
The Seven Deadly sins can be thought of as dispositions toward sin and separation from God.
Most of the seven deadly sins are defined by Dante Alighieri (c. 1264–1321) as perverse or corrupt versions of love; lust, gluttony, and greed are all excessive or disordered love of good things; and wrath, envy, and pride are perverted love directed toward others' harm. The sole exception is sloth, which is a deficiency of love.
In today’s episodes, we explore the Gluttony sin! Gluttony is the overindulgence and overconsumption of anything to the point of waste. The word derives from the Latin gluttire, meaning to gulp down or swallow. One reason for its condemnation is that gorging the prosperous may leave the needy hungry
Join us as we discuss what triggers our most substantial feelings of Gluttony, what you consume the most on the internet, Is Jeff Bezos is gluttonous, and What’s the thing that you have consumed the most and why?

The sole exception is sloth, which is a deficiency of love.
In today’s episode, we explore pride. Pride is defined as the excessive belief in one's abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. Pride is also known as Vanity. It is considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins on almost every list. It is identified as dangerously corrupt selfishness, the putting of one's desires, urges, wants, and whims before the welfare of other people. Join us as we discuss things we take pride in, when pride becomes a bad thing,and experiences that hurt our pride.

Sacral Chakra: (Orange) responsible for sexuality, creative expression, and emotions. Pride falls under this chakra because it hugely represents your power of choice. We are all at choice regarding everything, our thoughts & actions. This chakra is said to be blocked by fear, especially the fear of death. Opening this chakra can boost creativity, manifested desire, and confidence.
Affirmations:
-Creative energy flows through me freely.
-I nurture myself emotionally and take full responsibility for my own happiness.
-My relationships are based on mutual respect and appreciation.
-I trust my loved ones, and they can trust me.

In today’s episodes, we explore the Envy sin! An insatiable desire like greed and lust characterizes envy. It can be described as a sad or resentful covetousness towards the traits or possessions of someone else. Envy is also a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck. Join us as we discuss what triggers our most substantial feelings of envy, what women envy about men and vice versa, and whether envy has ever ruined a relationship.

In today’s episode, we explore the Lust sin! Lust is intense longing. It is usually thought of as intense or unbridled sexual desire, which may lead to fornication (including adultery), rape, bestiality, and other sinful and sexual acts; oftentimes, however, it could also mean other forms of unbridled desire, such as for money, or power. Join us as we discuss if lust is healthy for a relationship, how often we lust others, and how to know if it’s love or lust in relationships.
