"Inordinate self-love is the cause of every sin.the root of pride is found to consist in man not being, in some way, subject to God and His rule."Ĭhristian teaching against pride encourages people to be submissive to religious authorities in order to submit to God, thus enhancing church power. Thomas Aquinas argued that all other sins stem from Pride, making this one of the most important sins to focus on:
Pride is also the failure to give others credit due them-if someone's Pride bothers you, then you are also guilty of Pride. Pride-or vanity-is the excessive belief in one's abilities, such that you don't give credit to God.
