Interesting connection. To answer that, you have to know what "Sloth" is. Sloth is basically extreme laziness - just sitting around all day, doing nothing, and doing even that very slowly. When the people were making up the Seven Deadly Sins, they came up with Lust, Gluttony, Envy, Pride and Greed pretty easily..then they got stumped. Wrath and Sloth filled out the dance card... When the animal now known as the Sloth was discovered, it's discoverers noted that it moved very slowly, if at all, and seemed to be very lazy...thus, they named it the Sloth. Can you imagine what they would have named it if it had picked up its poop and threw it at them?
