Congratulations! It was very funny. My favorite part was the fake names of fake sins.

Grath, hoth, and lurm!

When presented with the prompt "Give names for three new deadly sins" ChatGPT provided this:

Here are three invented deadly sins, crafted in the spirit of the traditional seven, with a modern or philosophical twist:

1. Oblivaria (The Sin of Willful Ignorance)
Definition: The deliberate avoidance of truth, learning, or awareness—choosing comfort over understanding, even when ignorance harms others.
Symbolic Animal: The ostrich (head in the sand).
Color: Pale gray.
Punishment in a Mythical Afterlife: Eternally wandering a maze of mirrors, each showing a truth once ignored.

2. Vantagium (The Sin of Exploitative Opportunism)
Definition: Using power, charm, or intellect to manipulate situations purely for personal gain, regardless of cost to others.
Symbolic Animal: The spider.
Color: Tarnished gold.
Punishment in a Mythical Afterlife: Climbing an endless golden ladder that collapses with every step forward.

3. Nihilith (The Sin of Destructive Apathy)
Definition: Apathy so deep that it erodes hope, beauty, and meaning—not merely indifference, but the active draining of purpose from life.
Symbolic Animal: The vulture.
Color: Black-violet.
Punishment in a Mythical Afterlife: Trapped in a void where all voices echo with one's own emptiness.

Would you like matching virtues for these as well?
