Corn Roast or Seven Deadly Sins Displayed

I'm still reeling at the behaviour of my family at the corn roast last Saturday night. Debauchery is the only word that comes to mind when I think back on the antics. I can only compare it to a shameful display of the

Seven Deadly Sins

*

Pride

The original and most serious of the seven deadly sins.

*

*

Gluttony

They ate like starving wolves, ripping and tearing at their food. They drank as if they had been in the desert for days!

*

*

Lechery

Lechery was rampant. Young and old giving in to excessive thoughts or desires of a sexual nature. Embarrassing!

*

*

Envy

Clearly demostrated here by Gryper's audience!

*

*

Greed

Although not readily apparent in this photo, greed was represented. Gryper in an act of extreme greed, didn't want to bring his full bottle of gin to the party. Instead, he poured a small amount into an empty gin bottle and topped it up with tonic water. He inadvertently took the wrong bottle to the party and began drinking, realizing the mistake only after he was unable to stand up. When the party pigs found out, that he didn't want to share his full bottle of gin in the first place, they taught him a lesson about greed and sharing.

*
Wrath

Described as inordinate and uncontrolled feelings of hatred and anger, wrath is shown here in an undignified display by two of the young ladies in attendance.

*

*

Sloth

Although sloth, described as indifference, or perhaps an unwillingness to care is now considered the least serious, it was represented the most.

*

All THAT IS GOOD AND PURE

Here, apart from the rest of the iniquity and depravity is a show of kindness and caring. In the spirit of Mother Theresa, Mrs Gryper tirelessly walked with her great granddaughter, in an effort to prevent her seeing the perversion taking place.

This grandmother, also apart from the lascivious crowd, is reading to her innocent grandsons. She teaching them about St. Francis of Assisi, the Patron Saint of Animals and the Environment, and how he cared for dogs and birds.
