Seven Social Sins is a list that was first uttered in a sermon delivered in Westminster Abbey on March 20, 1925[1] by an Anglican priest named Frederick Lewis Donaldson. He originally referred to it as the "7 Deadly Social Evils".[2] It's a common misconception that Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was the origin of this list as he published the same list in his weekly newspaper Young India on October 22, 1925.[3] Later he gave this same list to his grandson, Arun Gandhi, written on a piece of paper on their final day together shortly before his assassination.[4] The Seven Sins are:

Wealth without work.Pleasure without conscience.Knowledge without character.Commerce without morality.Science without humanity.Religion without sacrifice.Politics without principle.

History and influenceEdit

Before Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi published the list in his weekly newspaper Young India on October 22, 1925,[3] an almost identical list had been published six months earlier in England in a sermon at Westminster Abbey by Fredrick Lewis Donaldson.[5] Gandhi wrote that a correspondent whom he called a "fair friend" had sent the list: "The... fair friend wants readers of Young India to know, if they do not already, the following seven social sins,"[3] (the list was then provided). After the list, Gandhi wrote that "Naturally, the friend does not want the readers to know these things merely through the intellect but to know them through the heart so as to avoid them."[3] This was the entirety of Gandhi's commentary on the list when he first published it.

In the decades since its first publication, the list has been widely cited and discussed.

Some books have focused on the seven sins or been structured around them:

Easwaran, Eknath (1989). The Compassionate Universe: The Power of the Individual to Heal the Environment. Tomales, CA: Nilgiri Press. ISBN 9780915132591. OCLC 20393226. ISBN 0915132591, ISBN 9780915132584, ISBN 0915132583 (listed, discussed, and served as chapter structure for book)In his 1989 book, Principle-Centered Leadership, self-help writer, Stephen Covey talked about the sins in Chapter 7: SevenDeadly Sins (p. 87 to 93).[6][7]Woolever, Frank (2011). Gandhi's List of Social Sins: Lessons in Truth. Pittsburgh, PA: Dorrance Publishing. ISBN 9781434907943. OCLC 801817588. ISBN 1434907945 (focuses on the list)

Many books have discussed the sins more briefly:

New York: HarperOne. ISBN 9780060000738. OCLC 125402376. (p. 122 states "Years ago, I was much encouraged when I discovered that Gandhi had a list of seven social sins that, if not resisted, could destroy both persons and countries. .... We live in a world in which these social sins flourish as much today as they did in Gandhi's time; surely the battle against them is still worth waging.")Taylor, Adam (2010). Mobilizing hope: Faith-inspired activism for a post-civil rights generation. Downers Grove, IL: IVP Books. ISBN 9780830838370. (p. 155 mentions two of the social sins, stating "The recent economic collapse (now referred to as the Great Recession) reminds me of two social sins from Gandhi's famous list of seven deadly social sins. Gandhi warned about the dangers of wealth without work and commerce without morality....")Thomas Weber (2011). "Gandhi's Moral Economics: the Sins of Wealth Without Work and Commerce Without Morality." In: Brown, Judith M.; Anthony Parel (2011). The Cambridge Companion to Gandhi. Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press. pp. 135–153. ISBN 9780521116701. OCLC 646309046. (page 141 lists the sins and their date of publication, stating that "These and many of Gandhi's own writings make it quite clear that the Mahatma did not compartmentalize his life. For him, economics together with politics, morality and religion formed an indivisible whole.")Rana P. B. Singh (2006). "Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi."
