why me wrote: "I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust upon a girl. I know full well that the Almighty God sends calamity on those who do" (Job 31:1-3, The Living Bible).
What a great example of why the Bible should be tossed in the trash. As if calamity befalls only those who lust. As if not lusting helps you avoid calamity. People who really believe this are the ones who are criticized for being stupid for their religious beliefs. It's blatant stupidity.
why me wrote: "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart" (Matthew 5:28).
Oh look, more biblical stupidity. What a shock.
I don't care what you're ignorant book says. Thinking about something is not the same as doing that something.
why me wrote: Here is the point: Try masturbating without thinking of the opposite sex when you do. Or if you are gay, the same sex. Most people who masturbate have sexual fantansies when they do so. Thus, they have lust in the heart.
Damn straight. And if you can demonstrate empirically why there's something actually wrong with that in and of itself, you might have a point. But you can't, so you don't.
