I am not the first person to point out that our president is a virtual embodiment of the Seven Deadly Sins. Anyone who endured a classical Christian education will remember having to memorize them, probably with vague and watered down examples. They apparently originated with the “Desert Fathers” in the seventh century and they figure in stories from the “Canterbury Tales” as well as in Dante’s “Inferno.” In all cases they serve as admonitions to avoid falling into their snares which would lead to sure damnation.
