We went to level 7 today. This is where the levels start to get more complication, because Dante just doesn’t have ONE type of sinner for each level: there are THREE types of sinners in the Violence (actually, 6, but he lumps three together).

We talked about the centaurs in level 7.1: I always had the idea of sweet centaurs thanks to Disney’s Fantasia, but in Greek mythology, they were really, REALLY violent.

In Level 7.2, we talked about violence against SELF.

And in Level 7.3, we talked about BLASPHEMY, USURY, and HUMAN NATURE.

Blasphemy is insulting God or religious items. We talked about Piss Christ and how it’s blasphemous.

Then, we talked about USURY, and how it’s overcharging interest. We watched a few Western Sky commercials.

We also talked about the Minotaur. This is basically Minos’ step-son who eats people.

In Level 7.2, we talked about violence against SELF and harpies. Reminder: This is what Dante thinks. You can disagree with Dante! Here’s some harpies.
