The sin of
greed manifests in various ways, including;
• Hoarding of materials,
• Theft and robbery, and
• Bribery and corruption. Numerous Biblical prophets condemned greed, ranging from Nehemiah to Isaiah, Jeremiah, etc. Jesus himself covered the topic of greed extensively, constantly challenging the rich to give to the poor if they wish to
inherit the kingdom of God.
Throughout the Bible, one thing comes out abundantly clear. That material possessions can draw a man away from God, and it’s better to have just enough to get by. Too little can make a man covet his neighbor’s possessions and too much can lead to pride. Greed Counterparts: Kindness, generosity, and charity. Scriptural References on Greed: 1 Timothy 6:9-10, Ecclesiastes 5:10, Philippians 4:6, and Proverbs (11. 24 and 28:25). 4. Sloth Sloth, or acedia, is laziness as is manifested by the
willful avoidance of work.

A 2012 study from Kobe Shoin Women's University found that the use of
honorific suffixes and other polite speech markers have increased significantly over time, while age, sex, and other social variables have become less significant. The paper concluded that honorifics have shifted from a basis in power dynamics to one of personal distance. [8][10] They can be applied to either the first or last name depending on which is given. In situations where both the first and last names are spoken, the suffix is attached to whichever comes last in the word order. Japanese names traditionally follow the Eastern name order. An honorific is
generally used when referring to the person one is talking to (one's interlocutor), or when referring to an unrelated third party in speech. However, it is dropped by some superiors when referring to one's in-group or informal writing. It is never used to refer to oneself, except for dramatic effect or some exceptional cases. Dropping the honorific suffix when referring to one's interlocutor, which is known as to yobisute (呼び捨て), implies a high degree of intimacy and is generally reserved for one's spouse, younger family members, social inferiors (as in a teacher addressing students in traditional arts), close friends and confidants. Within sports teams or among classmates, where the interlocutors approximately are of the same age or seniority, it can be acceptable to use family names without honorifics. [1] Some people of the younger generation, roughly born since 1970, prefer to be referred to without an honorific.
