From my question: what are the deadly sins, I commited 6/7. Does that mean I'm a very bad person and will go to hell? I'm only a teen and I try so hard not to commit those sins but it seems every day I'm envious and jealous and angry but I never yell I only keep them in my head but I have head aches all the time from keeping it all in. And does anyone know the words to Hail Mary? I beleive it's a prayer to ask god to forgive me..

you could go to confession if you are catholic/have made your first reconciliation. (not sure about all the technical stuff...)
Xenolan answered Friday December 1 2006, 4:14 pm: If you look through the Bible, you'll notice a curious thing: The seven deadly sins (Anger, Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, Pride, Envy, Greed) aren't even in there. They were enumerated by a priest sometime during the middle ages to help people know what kinds of things they should be confessing about.
So don't put too much stock in the horror of the seven sins. They didn't come from the Word of God, they were invented by the church. Besides, we really have no choice but to commit some of them - just try to live a single week without being slothful. You'll probably pass out sometime in the middle of the fourth day. You can live without lust, I suppose, but if we all did it there wouldn't be any future generations. Those who obsess over avoiding gluttony usually end up suffering from some form of malnutrition. Rejecting all of one's angry feelings usually leads to emotional breakdown (or headaches). Live without envy and greed, and you'll probably live in abject poverty. And if by chance you actually DO manage to cleanse yourself of all these sins, you'll probably be proud of your accomplishment, thus blowing your perfect record.
Don't try to be perfect. You'll kill yourself in the process. I can't speak for God (no one can, including the Pope), but it seems to me that to expect someone to live a life entirely devoid of sin is a pretty tall order.
CHECKERED-LOVE answered Friday December 1 2006, 2:41 pm: well nobody's perfect and im sure everyone has sinned at least once. my advice would be to right the wrong. go to confession (reconciliaton/penance) and if you've done something mean to somebody, apologize.
the hail mary is:
Hail Mary, Full of grace, the lord is with thee Blessed art thou amongst woman, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Amen
gumaholic292 answered Friday December 1 2006, 2:06 pm: If you are truely sorry than just let god know through your prayer...Prayers don't have to be specific, I come from a very catholic family, but we have done our share of sins, many in fact. But if you are truely sorry then God knows that you are(which he will because he knows everything) and he will forgive you. No body is perfect, and he knows that.
By the way, the Hail Mary is:
Hail Mary, Full of grace, the lord is with thee Blessed art thou amongst woman, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.

smackywacky16 answered Friday December 1 2006, 10:09 am: Mary doesn't forgive you, God does. As far as the deadly sins. The punishment for all sins is death, an eternity separated from God. How do you avoid that? By calling upon the name of Jesus Christ. ALL of us commit every sin everyday. Jesus summed up all the commandments by saying, "Love the Lord, your God with all of your heart, soul..." and the greatest commandment of all was to "Love they neighbor as thyself." If you do that, you'll have all commandments covered. Of course we're still going to sin, but we can be forgiven because of the very blood of Jesus Christ. Remember that you're not the only one, we have all fallen short of the glory of God. Just rest assure that there is forgiveness and I'll be praying for you. Also, NEVER put off getting saved. There is no promise of tomorrow. www.Getsavedtoday.com
