in reply to Papal infallibility
Larry Wall's perl is much about context. He made the context very clear to which those virtues apply: programming, and he explained very well their meaning in that domain.
Note that these virtues are diametrally opposite to social virtues: laziness - diligence, impatience - patience, hubris - humility.
Since PerlMonks is a platform where perl programmers socialize, the latter of those opposites apply here.
