Everlast-What it's like

 "You are not punished for you sins, you are punished by you sins." -Extrapolation of Buddha

" The road to hell is paved with sinful pleasures." -Variance 

     The sins of gluttony and sloth this man sows leads to a reaping of begging on the street. He is often met with contempt and wrath. The homeless man's sins are given a pass yet the contemptuous behavior of the masses is not. In sum, they are scorned and he is not.

     The sins of lust sewn by a young couple leads to the reaping of an unwanted pregnancy. The man abdicates his responsibility and hides, the woman then, too, abdicates her responsibility of the pregnancy and decides to terminate it  through the aid of the state. (The division of peoples beliefs of whether murder is being planned is contested, but no matter which side one stands, it is not a happy event.) People protesting the abortion clinic, who deem it as murder,  are contempt filled  and display wrath towards her.
