How Not To Do Things

ow Not To Do Things is the result of an exploration into the world of the seven deadly sins and how they can effect a person when committed to excess. Every day for a week I took on one sin, consigning myself a set of rules and tasks for the day designed to force me to commit that sin as much as possible. As you probably already know the seven deadly sins are a part of Christian doctrine which stipulate what you are not allowed to do if you want to get in to heaven, despite not appearing in the bible at all in fact being written by Pope Gregory in AD590. Essentially they are a set of rules on how not to live your life compiled by the Christian church. I believe that in reality these sins were designed as a way for the church to further exhort control over its followers but in a non-god fearing, secular society they are old fashioned and no longer hold any relevance.
