I assume that by “shacking”, they actually meant “shacking up”.

Ooh … as we used to say in (Catholic) school, that’s a sin for you!
What do you assume they meant by “backbiter” and “filthy talk”?
And “wanting something that belongs to someone else”? That’s not quite the same thing as coveting. I want groceries, but they belong to Loblaws. I’m such a sinner.
I like how “murder” is at the very bottom of the list. After the far greater sins such as “whisperer” and “gay.”
I’m thinking they’re going for backstabber when they say “backbiter”? Could be wrong though.
Now “filthy talk” – ha! If you need an explanation for that one, you’re not doing it right
Are these actually sins or a list of greatest hits?
“Backbiter” means talking behind someone’s back. And yes, it is a band – the second result on Google right now!
I printed this on a transparent piece of paper and put it in our office window. I’m guilty of most of those.
My 2 favourites: Pride, and Whoremonger (WTF!?)
Given the lies I’ve been asked to choke down by our current government, I would have to raise my hand high for the sin of ‘Unbeliever’. Or as they say above the sin of ‘unbelief’. Rather a lot of that going around ATM.
I love how gay, has two men praying together. That’s so gay.
