I know plenty about the seven deadly sins. I wrote what I wrote the way I wanted the reader to read it. I didn't say anything about "And God said," or "The pope said..." Funny how you also tossed in the original gangster of reading Easy Reader who only read what was Chyroned onto the screen and nothing more and nothing less.

Yes, gluttony is a cause for war. Warlords in Ethopia is a good example withholding food and supplies for themselves to control. America keeping an eye on its own oil interests. Iraq invading Kuwait for the oil stores. Indian Wars in the Americas for the land and resources of the lands.

The only way to have "peace" is to remove the part that is the X factor in the equation. That is to remove the human condition. If you can remove that, then you can achieve "peace" but I also think that the seven deadly sins are things that keep us alive and kicking. They are the things that make us human beings and without them we are without souls but just automatons.

We all need some pride otherwise, why do worthy things? Will does things that give him great pride like protesting wars, writing letters to government officials, etc, but not too much pride that he's big headed about them. Greed to some degree is good as is lust. It is the degree at which these affect us as individuals. The amount that I can tolerate is not the same as what will can tolerate and what either of us could be way below what you are able to tolerate.
