I think the church included sloth as a sin so the peasants would keep grinding and not be complacent to live off of their garden and enjoy their little lives.
That grind mentality.

Actually, we work harder than medieval peasants and the church specifically condemned working on Sundays.
Also the seven deadly sins predate Christianity.
Do you have a proper substantive source for the seven deadly sins predating Christianity?
I’m legitimately curious here, because I can’t find anything that supports that claim.
Also the seven deadly sins predate Christanity.
I thought the of the seven deadly sins, as often listed, developed within Christianity?

A tree moves towards the sky with a goal of growing and providing for the next generation of trees. Plus it connects with its neighbors through the roots it spreads.
