What D-fender said (6784). A heterosexual who is aroused by a member of an opposite sex and not his spouse is not sinning; he is merely being a healthy human being.

Sorry but that's nonsense and directly contradicts scripture and what our Lord Jesus stated. Sin is a condition of the heart-not the acting out. Can you provide me with a SCRIPTURAL verse that would show otherwise?

Likewise, a homosexual aroused by some situations is simply being what he is.

By the time lust has been conceived it is already too late. Lust gives birth to sin. The Church's position is total appeasement to the gay community.

Jam 1:15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death

This is all I need: disposition -> lust -> sin born -> sin accomplished -> death. The disposition in itself is not sin. It may lead to it; then it may not.
