10 things the bible says you can't do that you do anyway.


Recommended Posts

The simple act of looking at a female with the thought of sexual activity is seen as adultery, simply thinking about it is a sin, for if you could have sex with her you would. Better not to look at any woman who is not your wife, lest you sin by thinking naughty thoughts.

That is neither the dictionary definition, nor the common usage of the word adultery.

 

It is a silly definition made up by fundamentalist Christians to guilt people into following them.

 

Think about it, what would even be the point in having that word with your definition? it would describe everyone on the planet and thus serve no real purpose or use as a descriptor.

 

The OED has this:

 

"Violation of the marriage bed; the voluntary sexual intercourse of a married person with one of the opposite sex, whether unmarried, or married to another (the former case technically being designated 'single', the latter 'double adultery'."

Not my definition Jimmy, its those crazy sexually repressed jews and christians who don't understand human nature, crazy thought police again

 

 

"Don't even think about it!" was popularized in a 1993 Pepsi commercial.

 

It's good advice, don't knock it.
