The fact that sin leaves people hurt and confused is par for the sinful course; that doesn't mean the initial choices aren't any less selfish or self-serving. Sin is only pleasurable temporarily; then it becomes painful and destructive. In the beginning, it can be pleasurable--which is why human beings choose sin over and over and have since the beginning of time.

Of course sin leaves people hurting and confused. That's one of the reasons I so strongly object to any religious teaching that allows people to remain in sin and still be saved--because sin is universally destructive--even if you are told that God is okay with it and you feel some sort of acceptance in your religious circle. The sin itself will still eat away at your spirit, mind and body, and you will still find yourself hurt and confused in the end. Shame on any minister who seeks to allow people to remain in their sins and feel good about themselves spiritually. That man is seeking to allow people to remain in destruction instead of being an overcomer.
This makes no sense to me......what about men who are attracted to masculine women, and women who are attracted to effeminate men? Are they homosexual?

Homesxuality is no more narcissism than men who are attracted to women who look like them, and vice versa!

What about men who are attracted to women who are just like their mothers? Are they guilty of incest?

Come on......
