No, if you boast about it to others and brag/etc, then it could be, but personally reassuring yourself u did something great is not a Satanic "act" IMO.


Correction, pride of any sort is a sin.

Yeah but I didn't want to label it as a "Satanic Act", which was his question :P

I don't think it would be a "satanic act" but a sin...well I don't think a Satanic Act is a sin? or is that what he means? sorry I am confused

Well technically in Satanism - Yes and definitely with Judeo-Christian beliefs as Pride is one of the seven deadly sins...


And technically all sins are "Deadly"

"The wages of sin is death" no exceptions.

Yes, but that's just the title given to those 7 specific sins, I wasn't saying they were the only "deadly" ones.

I'm personally not Christian so it doesn't bother me, but I have put my time to research into it.

The "Seven Deadly Sins" are not from the Bible (that is, Judaism, or Christianity). They are more tradition (Catholic) at this point than anything else. While the Bible does mention various of them as sins, the closest you'll find to a list is either the commandments or in Proverbs, but that list is not really anything like the SDS.

What Torm1 was getting at is that all sin is equal in the eyes of God.

Ahh okay, makes sense, I am sure they're all listed in Leviticus somewhere, not that I can remember them all (There's a lot!).

god still wants us to enjoy life, there are many things that he created for us on earth that is very satisfying i.e. eating drinking sleeping working sex.. well basically everything

we have a tendency to twist these things into either doing it too much or too little or in the wrong way that God intended, that is sin

and God does deserve all glory and honor, after all he has created and continues to hold everything together in his power
therefore, God does have the right to do what he wishes with creation
