It seems very odd that lazy and ONLY lazy would appear in the Virtue/Vice Lists result in the Topic Guide. I hoping this wasn't customized for meWink

    Does seem strange. I guess whoever was doing the tagging just didn't feel like doing anymore after dealing with "lazy".

    I am not sure exactly what criteria are required for being listed there, but I would expect at least some of the other 7 (or whatever number you ascribe to) vices that exist would have entries. I'll look into it and report back.

    ...

    There are quite a few ways in which the relationships between topics aren't fully populated. The vast majority of the topics come from existing dictionaries: so we only have this topic because Anchor and Dictionary of NT Background do, and probably Laziness doesn't belong here (it's an instance of a vice, but not really relevant to lists of vices and virtues).

    if the coverage of a broad topic isn't what you expect, you should probably try with more specific instances (which are typically more informative anyway). I checked as many of the 7 Deadlies as i could recall, and they all have individual topic entries.

    Thanks Sean. I suspected that it was a 'typo" in tagging but I have no easy way to verify and report that.
