Greed and lust are probably the two temptations Christians fall short in. Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. Of the seven deadly sins, gluttony, greed and lust have expanded in scope since they were first defined to point of being synonymous.
All three essentially boil down to a strong desire to experience a momentary high or possess an asset for its own sake. How would one distinguish between the sins when the object is the same?

Greed deals with hoarding simply to have things and many of them. You want something, but you want to consume it. All of it.
