geez... I hate to say it, but Schimmel is an idiot. Drop it and move on. We have bigger problems than the so called seven deadly sins. If each of us individually committed one of the seven deadly sins every day - and no OTHER sins - we'd be so much better off as a people. Humanity would be so much better off. Read Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn, instead - Twain had real insight.

Chill, Schimmel's work is outdated but I'd still like to explore some of his points.

Besides, not all books we read will be/should be good books. Occasionally, reading a bad book makes the mind more critical.
