Derek Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Note, that I'm not the original author of the following. I'm posting this because it actually, amazed me. Original link:http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=190291Stephen Hillenburg based the 7 main characters on the 7 Deadly Sins, I couldn't help but be very fascinated. I think I've figured out which character is each one.1\. Sloth-PatrickSloth is the sin of laziness, or unwillingess to act. Obviously this is Patrick. He lays under a rock all the time and doesn't really do anything. In fact in the episode "Big Pink Loser" he got an award for doing nothing the longest.2\. Wrath-SquidwardWrath involves feelings of hatred and anger. Squidward hates his life, usually hates SpongeBob, and is pretty much angry most of the time.3\. Greed-Mr. KrabsObviously Mr. Krabs is greedy and desires money. How could Greed not be Krabs? He actually sang about the power of greed in "Selling Out".4\. Envy-PlanktonPlankton is envious of Mr. Krabs because The Krusty Krab is a success while The Chum Bucket is a failure. His envy drives him to try to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula.5\. Glutony-GaryI actually think this one is pretty funny. Did you ever notice the running gag in Spongebob where they say "don't forget to feed Gary" or Sponge says "I gotta go feed Gary". Gary even ran away that time when SpongeBob forgot to feed him. Glutony usually refers to the overindulgence of food so I'm guessing this one fits him pretty well.6\. Pride-SandySandy takes a lot of pride in who she is and where she comes from. She takes pride in the fact that she is from Texas and likes to let everyone know it. She also takes pride in the fact that she is a mammal and a land creature, like in the episode "Pressure" where she tried to prove land critters were better than sea critters.7\. Lust-SpongeBobOk, I know what your thinking. It does seem a little weird and curious at first but I have given it a lot of thought. Lust in one definition is "excessive love of others". I think this one works best for Spongebob. He shows his love of others with his overeagerness to do good and help people. If anything is true about SpongeBob its that he loves everyone around him, even if they don't exactly love him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCream Tuesday Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 pretty well thought out.. though.. lust is love? I thought lust was just a physical attraction. not emotional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 @IceCream:> pretty well thought out.. though.. lust is love? I thought lust was just a physical attraction. not emotional.Like I said, I didn't write it. But it sure as hell doesn't seem like coincidence. If the theme was intentional, I'm sure the writer has his own interpretations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demon xxx x Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Did you also notice that a lot of spongebob episodes are EXTREMELY homosexual? Like there's always some type of gay act/speech in it, gay as in LITERALLY homosexual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LmaoYeah, it was in several magazines I believe. The writer makes "friends" seem more than friends. If Spongebob and Patrick are fags for each other, I don't really care because I stopped watching the show a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything is true about SpongeBob its that he loves everyone around him, even if they don't exactly love him back.What about Sponge Bobs lust for his job although he does take pride in his work, he does more or less lust after it.1\. intense sexual desire or appetite.2\. uncontrolled or illicit sexual desire or appetite; lecherousness.3\. a passionate or overmastering desire or craving (usually fol. by for): a lust for power. 4\. **ardent enthusiasm; zest; relish**: an enviable lust for life. 5\. Obsolete. a. pleasure or delight.b. desire; inclination; wish.–verb (used without object)6\. to have intense sexual desire.7\. **to have a yearning or desire; have a strong or excessive craving** (often fol. by for or after).

Homicidal Monkey Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 lol, this is actually not true.Spongebob originated as a graphic novel for kids in the 80's that epicfailed. These similarities were not actually implied but rather gradually written in because thats how the subconscious works.[SOURCE](http://www.ocregister.com/articles/spongebob-hillenburg-says-2495780-years-kenny) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
