The Seven Capital Sins of Modern Man

I was intrigued by reading a list of the 7 Capital Sins of Modern Man in a book called 503 Sermon Illustrations by Jose Martinez. The 7 Capital Sins (an update, I would assume, of the 7 Deadly Sins) are attributed to Mahatma Ghandi. Here's the list:
  • Politics without principles
  • Wealth without work
  • Pleasure without conscience
  • Knowledge without character
  • Business without morality
  • Worship without sacrifice
  • Science without humanity

What do you think? Are these the sins that separate us from God?
