God's 32 Vices

There were thirty-two vices in the original list, but they were edited down by God.

God said, "I love these creatures, and though their every deed sins against me, let their pain be minimized," and so we have Love and Sacrifice and Obedience, and we call them Virtues.

God said, "Let their role be simple, and give them an easy path to walk," and so we have Generosity and Tolerance and Adaptability, and God's son showed these to the people so they would never suspect, not until they reached Heaven, and with their new found knowledge, weep for three days and four nights in their sorrow.

God said, "I will forgive them Wonderment and Anticipation and Empathy and Fatigue, I will forgive them Pity and Righteousness and I will even forgive them Peace of Mind," but then God's brow furrowed. "But I will not forgive the other sins. In committing them, may humans experience Guilt and Shame, and may it hurt them and make them suffer."

But then, God relented once more. "I will forgive them, though, their Guilt and Shame."
