When is arousal a sin?

[joeybaggz]

Is it a sin, and if so, a mortal sin, to let yourself be aroused if you’re not actually thinking of sex or objectifying anyone?

Sam
As other posters have said, desire/arousal is normal and natural in the course of a relationship as it develops. A thought I like is that human desire is normal, we are wired tht way, and God did the wiring. However, if and when desire is mixed with malice and intent, if one chooses to objectify a woman only to use her for one’s selfish satisfaction, then it becomes a sin. Best to cool things down if you feel it getting to that point.

Shalom
