Luxuria, Superbia, Gula, Ira, Invidia, Avaritia, & Acedia. Sounds like an Italian law firm, but no. These are the traditional Seven Deadly Sins in Latin.
The Catholic Church considered them deadly because they destroyed a life of grace and threatened eternal damnation to those who indulged. At one time, the church could, for a price, help out with some of the lesser sins. You pays your money and you gets your indulgences.
