Um, yeah, that's called "temptation". I'm not a guy, but I do have a libido and know the difference between being assaulted by temptation and wallowing in it. I have a brain and a body shaped by Original Sin- it is going to be tempted, feel anger, lust, and despair. But baptism has cleansed my soul so I am not doomed to consent to these temptations. I can fly from them to Christ, my rock and refuge. I'm not entirely clear where you picked up this whole "temptation≅sin" thing....

She didn’t say that and from what I know of her, she doesn’t believe that either.

It was a charge leveled by someone with an agenda.

But not you. I didn’t mean to imply that. I just realized that that could have been read wrong.

I should have included charge *initially* leveled.

How long do you have to look and think before it is sin? 5 secs? 10 secs? a minute ? ... how long before it is sin?
