There many kinds of sins like murder, adultery, stealing and etc., but there are sins that we called as the SEVEN DEADLY SIN or the cardinal sins or the capital vices. The seven deadly sins are the basic sins that lead us to all other. These are deadly in their own way, and once you give in to one of these the remaining 6 is very glad to enter your soul. The currently recognized version of this sins are usually given as anger, greed, sloth, anger, envy, lust and pride. Overcoming these things should be our life's work.
SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANT is an American animated television series created by animator Stephen Hillenburg. Much of the story centers in the adventure of the tittle character and his friend in a underwater city called the Bikini Bottom. The seven main character of the story is SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Eugene Krab, Squidward Tentacles, Sandy Cheeks, Gary "The Snail", and Sheldon Plankton.
I am very fascinated when I am surfing the net and I came across to one article that is saying that Hillenburg actually based the characters in Spongebob in 7 deadly sins. I am watching this cartoon for years now and I don't have any idea about this until then. Below are the list of the character and their sin.
1.PATRICK STAR(sloth)-sloth is sin of being lazy, and unwilling to act. Its a failure to do things that one should do. Patrick is a very lazy starfish that lives under the rock and cry out sometimes. He always have this saliva hanging in his mouth. Sometimes in a series he intentionally lower his voice to let them know that talking is very hard and too much effort for him. And he is also given an award for "doing absolutely nothing longer than anyone else".
2.SQUIWARD TENTACLES(anger)- "SPONGEBOB!!!" we will always heard this word from the green squid yelling. Almost in all the series of spongebob,squidward is always angry almost to everyone. He have this very snobbish personality and a wrinkles in his forehead. He hate everyone specially Spongebob and Patrick because of their stupidity. He is a cashier in Krusty Krab but he always say that he hates his job and being there. He choose to play his clarinet inside done to socialized outside. He don't want to be around to somebody or even having a friend.
3.SHELDON PLANKTON(envy)-Plankton owns a restaurant called The Chump Bucket. but he is always envy with Mr. Krab wealth and good fortune. He is just a small monster but he always have a big plan for stealing the formula for Krabby Patty from his mortal enemy, Mr. Krab. In reality plankton is very peaceful, but here in Spongebob he is very jealous that turned him to became monster and evil. He is literally green with envy.
4.EUGENE KRAB(greed)- well now being greedy is pretty obvious to Mr.Krab, the dsires of money is always in his mind. Abusing the costumer in Krusty Krab and his employee Spongebob is his daily routine.
As I remember he sold Spongebob soul to for a penny,less than a dollar. And one time in a series he suffer a head injury just because of trying to grab a 10 cents in a garbage disposal. He even went robing the dead in the graveyard because he thought it is profitable. There are countless series showing that Mr. Krab will do anything for the money. He even rob the the whole room in a hotel including the wall just to show his greed. Convince? He even actually sang the power of greed in the series Selling Out.
5.SANDY CHEEKS(pride)- sandy is a squirrel lives in Bikini Bottom. Sandy takes a lot of pride of who she is and where she came from. She takes pride in the fact that she is from Texas, a mammal and a land creature and she let everyone knows it. She always let everybody think that she better in everything she never takes advice from anyone. There is one episode that she tried to prove that land critters are better than sea critter.
7.SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS(lust)- I know this one is pretty tricky, cause we all know lust is an desire of sex. Lust in one definition is "excessive love of others". I think this one works for SpongeBob, the fact that he love so much everyone. He shows his love of others with his over eagerness to do good and help other creature. Even others don't love him back he always shows that he care and do anything to make them happy, even sometime his life is put in danger. Some series show that SpongeBob was very depress when he is left by Gary or he is denied as friend by Patrick. And many times Squidward got angry with him because he try to make him happy.
Even though SpongBob Squarepants is associated with the deadly sins I will still watch the show. The fact that it is all about nautical non-sense makes it funny. I will just say that don't let your children watch this regularly, maybe this is cartoon but this not good for children because this is not educational shows.
