Sins of flesh are
least punished in hell

Why?

They are the ones
people know that they are actively committing them

Recognize that they
are doing something wrong

Today it is the reverse

We
value the physical value

Plato
saw the real world as corrupt and that it will go away and die

Sins
of the mind stay with you forever

Today's
psychologists: good to have bad ideas just don't act it out

Classical
view: ideas are more real than things

Can you control your
thoughts?

Nominalist
- actual things were real

Realists
- ideas are real

Pride
is the root of all sins

Is a sin of the mind

You are not dependent on anything else

Hell does not have
many demons

And
they don't inflict the punishment

You
punish yourself

The reason people
are bad is because they are bad

So you provide love
to them
