QUESTION 162

OF PRIDE

(In Eight Articles)

We must next consider pride, and (1) pride in general; (2) the first

man's sin, which we hold to have been pride. Under the first head

there are eight points of inquiry:

(1) Whether pride is a sin?

(2) Whether it is a special vice?

(3) Wherein does it reside as in its subject?

(4) Of its species;

(5) Whether it is a mortal sin?

(6) Whether it is the most grievous of all sins?

(7) Of its relation to other sins;

(8) Whether it should be reckoned a capital vice?
