No, temptation IS sin.

That may be the wrongest of millions and millions of wrong things I have read in the RF over the years.

There should be a prize.

Do you know where the word temptation comes from? It's from the Latin word temptare, which means "to taste". In other words, to eat the apple.

But don't take my word for it, pull out ole Webster and read for yourself:

something that causes a strong urge or desire to have or do something and especially something that is bad, wrong, or unwise

Up is down, black is white. Unholy is Christian. I see I've knocked over the bee's hive of ignorance here.
