520 |a This article presents the thesis that the schema of the Seven Deadly Sins was originally a pastoral diagnostic system that helped spiritual directors, monks, and priests, the psychotherapists of their day, to make differential diagnoses and prescribe treatment plans for the troubled faithful. This essay describes the work of Evagrius Ponticus, whose list of eight 'evil thoughts' was one of the forerunners of the Seven Deadly Sins, and then goes on to describe the subsequent codification of the Seven Deadly Sins schema. The author speculates about what a fully developed diagnostic decision tree based on the Seven Deadly Sins with corresponding prescribed interventions might look like. The author then draws parallels to the recently released DSM-5, in particular to personality disorders and addictions. Finally, this essay offers a brief case to illustrate the differences in how a particular clinical entity might be viewed through the lenses of the DSM-5 and the Seven Deadly Sins.
