Is it a sin to look at pretty girls? especially those sensitive parts of the body?
 
Umm… I guess lusting after it is sinful, but if you’re a teenager, it’s pretty… natural. Just be careful what you say to these girls and keep your hands and feet to yourself.

Lol.

You look.

You see.

You thank God for creating beauty.

You try not to linger.

You move along.

No sin done.

God Bless,
Ryan

Do you mean that we sometimes might be attracted but we need to control ourselves?
 
Some teenage girls, including me, don’t like being stared at in a lustful way. Control would be nice. :o
Since you said “teenagers are pretty natural”, do you mean they could be forgiven if they have lust after looking?

That is my answer to that.

Right. 'Cuz Paris, Winehouse and LinLo are living much more satisfying lives and are generally more joyful than, say, Mother Theresa.

:rolleyes:

Maybe nature doesn’t want you to enjoy life quite that much?

Are people who go after the next big thing truly happy? No. If they were, they wouldn’t be looking for the next big thing. The sign of true happiness is the quiet contentment that can only be achieved through communion with our creator.

Paris and Lindsay? Really? The world is a bigger place than you think, buddy. Way bigger than the universe on your T.V. set.

Anyways, that quote was biologically speaking. 😉

Lol. I’ve been around the block a few times, so no worries about my paradigm. I used those gals names for examples you’d be familiar with.

But I note you didn’t answer the substance of the charge. The folks who “live life to the full” in contradistinction to the Christian ethos typically wind up either broken and alone or dead young.

I’d be surprised if you could name a single person who disproved this.

My priest once told me: “Look but don’t stare.”

My priest told me that it is natural for a person to find certain members of the opposite sex attractive, and that it is not a sin to admire the beauty of others. It only becomes a sin if we deliberately engage in lustful thoughts and fantasies.
 
Yes, it is natural for people to be attracted to the opposite sex, but my guess is that if you are asking this question, it is probably not a good idea for you to be looking. Not to mention the fact that you can look at someone with completely clean intentions and still become aroused mentally and/or physically.

Christ said, “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.”

In my opinion, the best policy is to try and look at them as you would look at your sister or the way you would want other guys to look at your wife - just with respect.
