RE: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Part 2

Wikipedia Wrote:In almost every list, pride (Latin, superbia), or hubris
(Greek), is considered the original and most serious of the seven
deadly sins, and the source of the others. It is identified as a desire
to be more important or attractive than others, failing to acknowledge
the good work of others, and excessive love of self (especially holding
self out of proper position toward God). Dante's definition was "love of
self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbour". In Jacob
Bidermann's medieval miracle play, Cenodoxus,
pride is the deadliest of all the sins and leads directly to the
damnation of the titulary famed Parisian doctor. In perhaps the
best-known example, the story of Lucifer, pride (his desire to compete with God) was what caused his fall from Heaven, and his resultant transformation into Satan. In Dante's Divine Comedy, the penitents were forced to walk with stone slabs bearing down on their backs to induce feelings of humility.

Is this your definition of "pride"? Because it has been obsolete since the middle ages. Now "pride" just refers to satisfaction with oneself and one's achievements.
