[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And sure there are non religious judgmental people but this is your only argument. No one is saying there isn’t. Religion doesn’t fix temptation. Actions do. [/quote]

Neither religion nor action “fixes” temptation. Temptation will never go away. Sin will never go away. We don’t hit some magical point where we are immune to temptation and proclivity to sin. As Christians, we realize that sin is something to deal with and reject. God doesn’t want us to sin because sin harms us and other humans. Having sex with an attractive person we like and who likes us is fun. If you are married, God says you are only supposed to have sex with your spouse because adultery hurts your life as a married person; it hurts your spouse, who you love and you promised not to hurt, etc.

Everyone judges their fellow man, be it from a religious perspective, or from a non-religious, ethical/moral standpoint.

I think there are religious people who need to assess their own lives before worrying about the lives of others. They do not care about God or the Bible; they are only interested in their own selfish pleasure.

I think there are non-religious people who don’t care about anything but their own lives and selfish pleasures, and their only real problem with God and religion is that they remind some people that not everything they do is the right thing to do. They want to be free to do anything they desire, even if it hurts themselves or others.[/quote]
