Liz: the above was not an expression toward dissatisfaction. With the impropriety and the wages of sin, it was a general comment toward showing what redemption means. And of course you wouldn't complain, even if you saw the opportunity arising for it.
To do any recreational activity intensively for long periods is selfish.
Everybody needs ‘time off’, and there is no commandment against relaxing, but if it is consuming you and all of your time, then yes it is in many ways disregarding the call to discipleship that the Christian god has issued.
I am an atheist, but I would consider the excessive playing of computer games to be somewhat unethical, if it was impacting on your ability to contribute to society.
I did not think so.
More demolition of languages againsigh you are right of course and it is a reason for generations misunderstanding each other. For me I will stick with: I lust for PBJ sandwiches, I greedily do not share them and I really am a glutton for them.
Please don’t insult my or your intelligence any further. It was a pointed, personal attack accusing a poster of having no sense of humour.
No, I did. And you are a hair’s breadth from a warning, so please cease the passive-aggressive surliness.
You are just wrong.
Ban me if you want to, but that does not change the fact that I was not “attacking” and the person I was supposedly attacking did not think so either.
I may not have thought you were ‘attacking’ me, HC, but I did think you were trying to pick a fight; i.e., trolling. FYI, I do not fight nor do I feed trolls. 
You are creating more trouble for me than you know, with the moderators by saying that.
Can you tell me how can I be “picking a fight”, and not “attacking”?
Please re-read the post in question. All I was doing is asking you some questions about the consequences of your “Kitchen, Kids, Church” experience, simply because I am interested in what happened to you, and what that means.
I know regret showing an interest in your life.
PS. This is what I wrote:
So you were brought up to expect Kinder, Küche, Kirche - I get it.
Does that also mean that you don’t really have a sense of humour?
Does that also mean that you can’t make your own choices and enjoy your life?
Lust is nature’s way of promoting the species. It is not bad or evil.
If you believe god created us, then you have also to accept that he gave us lust. Why deny his greatest gift?
I think it is you that needs to loosen up when it comes to humour you don’t seem to have any whatever.
Maybe the last sentence was a bit cheeky, but the rest of the post is genuine interest, in your life experience.
To which I replied:
You may have a “…genuine interest, in [my] life experience…” but it doesn’t come across as such. It comes across as ‘hectoring’ me (as O_H said) about my feelings regarding sex.
If you know anything about how the human mind develops memories, you’d know our memories are tainted by the subjective feelings we had at the time we experienced the incident that created the memory. I had no sexual experiences as a child–nothing that would leave me at all fearful of sex. I was not raised to expect my life to be composed of children, cooking, and church. That’s a question that reflects your attitudes rather than mine.
Futhermore, my personal feelings have no place in an open forum. Nor are they your business at all! 
No I haven’t.
Oh dear…
I can see you have “issues” about a range of subjects that I find mundane.
I’ll put you on ignore, in future.
PS. In order to be wrong, I’d have had to make a statement. In fact I was asking questions.
Is that because it is not relevant to the thread?
If you take this topic from a completely non-religious standpoint, a “sin” is not relevant to a persons life. If you live an ethical life, what you should be asking yourself is, “does this hurt anyone?”, “is this hurting myself?”, “am I hindering society by committing by doing this action?”. If the answer to all of those questions is no, well then you are not committing what religion might view as a “sin”.
Well put.
Suppose you go to Walmart. You buy some gadget and it says “Made In Malaysia”. You think, “what if this gadget was made in a sweatshop by kids working in terrible conditions, making pennies an hour.” Is it ethical to buy it? Or, for religious folks, is it a sin?
“You think …”
So as long as you don’t know that they are being exploited, then it is ethical and sinless to purchase the product.
Once you find out about exploitation, then it may be unethical or sinful.
Therefore, ignorance is guilt-free.
Well, that is certainly one way to look at it.
I don’t think “gadgets” made through exploitation fit into the “computer games” category.
Moral/ethical dilemma possible in both cases.
My argument is simply to suggest that ethics is always situational…and from a point of view. Something is wrong if you believe it is or right if you believe it is. There is no way however to determine if in fact it is right or wrong. And something is or is not a sin if you believe or do not believe in the God it is allegedly a sin against.
