I used to be better.

That'll be our new goal.

We'll go way too fast.

Vicious is just a word that means viceful, vice-like, you know?

He's basically using the word vice twice.

And it wasn't until I put it together that I was putting the episode together.

I was like, oh, right.

He was alluding to the seven deadly sins, but he didn't want to say they are seven deadly vices of rationalists.

So, like, what could he use?

And eventually he settled on vicious.

And...

I – that brought to mind the idea of like maybe it could have even been called the seven sins of rationalists because I've been hearing a lot of discourse recently about how one of the translations of sin – and maybe it's not the best translation, but it's certainly one that some people have been using – is the idea of missing the mark, that you are –

going for a certain goal and a sin is, uh, being further away from that goal.

Uh, and therefore it's, uh, what was it here?

It's derived from the Greek word hamataria, which means failing to hit a target in archery, illustrating how sin is falling short of God's perfect standard or purpose.

With the idea being that God isn't out there to punish you.

This is part of the more soft, hippie, liberal type of Christianity, the ones who take this interpretation.

But God's purpose isn't to punish you for doing bad things.

God's purpose is for you to be the best person you can be.
