Seven Deadly Sins lede

Hey I wanted to thank you for the edit you made on the Seven Deadly Sins article. Someone removed your sentence from the lede. The sentence was “These sins are often thought to be abuses or excessive versions of one's natural faculties or passions (for example, gluttony abuses one's desire to eat).” I readded it.
