Sloth-Apathy, idleness, and wastefulness of time. Laziness is particularly condemned because others must work harder to make up for it. Cowardice or irresponsibility. Abandonment, especially of God. Sloth is a state of equilibrium: one does not produce much, one does not consume much. Dante wrote that sloth is the "failure to love God with all one's heart, all one's mind and all one's soul". Associated with goats and the color light blue[citation needed]. The childish of the two misplaced childhood

All the Homunculus is named after the seven sins.
The seven sins are:
Greed
Sloath
Envy (or jelousy)
Hatred (Wraith)
Pride
Gluttony
Lust
Those are where the Homunculus get their names from.
And Sloath means Lazyness.

Avoidance of Spiritual and Physical work. Laziness, but it can also mean lack of work in anything, whether it be emotion, mentally or anything like that. Being depressed is one way to put it. Laziness is a sin, since you don't work for others or "God"

Go read The Divine Comedy (or if seperated Inferno and Pergatoro) by Dante Aligheiri
