The earth, the seas, fish, the animals were all created for the purpose of God's greatest creation: Man.

Modern day hiphop is rubbish. Lady Gaga belongs in the gutter.

I can agree to that, however thats not entirely how I meant what I said. Cheers tho PC. Sorry I gotta make this quick but ill give that more thought but I think I understand.

Say what?? Come again regarding not noticing a womens attractiveness? And yes, I do believe the two behaviors are synonymous as they both refer to sexual attraction first and foremost, in a general human sense. Same gender attraction is a condition as is a heterosexual married man with a wandering eye. So a statement that you do not do one can in fact answer a question about the other or at least shed some light, if the common ground here is sin and the prevention of it, keeping in mind that all this is coming from a "we are all human, we are all not perfect, we all have urges" perspective. I don't believe we are all so machanical to say subconscious biological reaction from visual stimuli is all a physical feeling or tendancy ammonts to, one would have to be in denial or devoid of reality to believe so, and I see this as counter productive measure in helping to solve ones long-term struggles in facing these isues -- talk about brushing off your original stance Dravin.

I dont think it's committing adultery in ones heart -- I just know how thoughts can be degenerative and I respect others enough to leave thoughts of their anotomy to their personal space.

Which is why I said physical feelings ...all those pages ago, (as in physical attraction) NOT emotional or social attraction. If it is an attraction based purely on the physical -- then it pertains to the physical anotomy, yes that could mean the Bust. Legs. Butt. or Face and not include anything regarding the emotional, mental, intellectual or social aspects of what is attractive.

What part of this quote dont you understand? Is there something wrong here? ....because it would be awfully ironic if it were.

Because I am a married man. I'm not saying every female is ugly in my eyes, I just choose not to sit there and think 'wow, that girl is hot' and reserve those thoughts for my wife. Ya feel me?

Mate, ...I missed this tidbit. My wifey insecure? I don't believe n do not think so, but who really knows but her. Why would you need to be eyeing up anyone else but your spouse anyway? Not being satiisfied, enough? (Sorry beef, perhaps this is a topic for anothher thread, but the comparison still emphasizes the definition of physical attraction in a general fashion)

Pics or it didn't happen... ...ok, back on topic -- I like Gay people, and am quite understanding when it comes to the plight that a gay person has. So I find it sad n' tasteless (as has happened in the last couple threads) that when the majority are lumped in as being a group of haters, mean and hurtful all becoz of the comments n action made by the fringe few.

That is just weird.

Good for you. So like homeboy above, do you tell your husband who you think all the sexy brethren in the ward are? ....by name??? ....Oh, okay if so, and as with MOE's reply... I say creepy.

Not suprised? ...why, what did you expect? did you think this was Christmas monrning and we were all sitting around the Christmas tree? Aww and here I was thinking we would recite scripture together with a willingness to understand and exercise charity in our hearts. I'm sorry Sir, that's b'cause my "recite scriptures online" day is Monday, so if you are patient enough to wait till next week (Monday)... i'll happily meet your request and satisfy your concern. Sweet. Don't forget to ask her if it's okay to think every other cute girl you see walk by, as being a 'cutie' also, coz that is exactly what Dravin is effectively saying is 'ok'.... just as long, as ya'know you dont act on it.

Are you married? ...coz bro, I'd so love to see you convince your wife of that notion.

You want me to recite you a scripture to start a 'my scripture is bigger than your scripture' moment? and inflate our egos huh? ...Nah, this isnt siminary so just keep it as a casual conversation okay bro?

Like I said earlier, great things don't come easy.

No, I'm too lazy.

Oh, they do have it already, it's loaded throughout the scriptures.

Being the married man I am, if I ever find myself think ...'that girl's cute' -- I know that is wrong because of the fact I am what I am, a married man. Then quietly repent so the thought does not repeat. Otherwise, there is a likely chance If I were to casually brush it off as nonchalantly as you suggested, I would indeed repeat that thought.

Great things don't come easy, my friend.

It's called living by principle, or being directed by truth, and not by nature, something that requires the act of choice. Cool?

Even if say, you were a married man? or say, the cute girl was your sister?

Prince Of Light.. It's not that I blatantly disagree, I just do not understand it's logic. If by tendencies you mean it is referring to physical urges? then at what point is that not a sin? at what type and level of the word ''tendency'' are we implying here?

Can someone please explain how having physical feelings for another outside of marriage is not a sin? All I see is a gaping flaw in the above Church statemet and I think I need to be clarified more.

This is an offensive and highly judgemental statement and I think deserves to be edited.
