D) Wrath, Greed, Lust, Gluttony

Answer:

Dante's vision of sins is Divine Comedy orders sins from least to worst as Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath.

In Dante's Divine Comedy, the Italian poet orders sins based on what he perceived as their severity in ascending order through his journey in Hell (Inferno). The correct ordering from least severe to worst according to Dante's vision is A) Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Wrath.

Dante positions Lust as the least severe: sinful due to excessive love for others, but not inherently malicious. Gluttony is next, representing overindulgence in material pleasures. On the third level of Hell, he finds the Greedy, individuals who hoarded or squandered wealth. Lastly, Wrath represents anger and hatred, a sin of excessive emotion to the harm of others, and is considered the worst in this particular order.
