Avoiding occasion of sin

[Box_Car_Racer]

is it alright if u are on a website where you go for a clean purpse and you think you see something bad to make sure its not like porn? or should you just go away and always remain with the doubt but not expose yourself to occasion of sin? what if you are aware that it might be a sin but not sure its a sin (to put yourself in a possible occasion of sin in this case ) but do it anyways?

I say if you’re just fishing, then avoid it and choose something else. If it is masquerading as something you are actually looking for, there’s not much you can do.

It does you no spiritual good to know whether a provocative title actually is what is seems to be. Pass on it. Convince yourself that really you know it might be there and you so don’t care it’s not worth taking Your Valuable Time to look. That is, unless you are a network administrator controlling the access rights for users in a school or something. Then you don’t want to shut down valuable information any more than necessary, if it is legit.
