[QUOTE="MovingForward2050, post: 1332500, member: 18126"] Sexual desire is a tool to keep the human race from dying out, and to ideally bond a man and woman together. I suppose "lust" could in some ways be considered a perversion of sexual desire, where it leads people into sin. But I believe that one of the big tests of this life, given by God, is to see how we will handle our sexual urges. The problem is that within our society, so many people are now single, and marry late, if at all, so immorality is rampant. In the past, people would usually marry young, and stay married. But I realize marriage alone is not a complete protection against having temptation from lust. Married people can still certainly get into trouble. And our culture provides so many temptations, in terms of porn, social media, night clubs, and seductive co-workers and friends, who want to find cheating partners. Celibacy for many people is simply too much to ask. Or at least they feel that way about it! Lol [/QUOTE]
