  • I disagree.
    And you couldn't be more wrong
    Quote
    The remedy for any sin is prayer.
    And marriage is a remedy for concupiscence
    Quote
    Elisting an unwitting woman as a remedy for a man's sin (concupiscence, lust, burning with sɛҳuąƖ passion) is wrong.
    Okay, so you're just anti-men :facepalm:
    "Unwitting", as if a woman wouldn't know what one of the ends of marriage is: a remedy for concupiscence

    Again, marriage makes it not a sin. That's the point! Concupiscence isn't a sin either. Neither is "burning with sɛҳuąƖ passion". That can most certainly be involuntary, and almost overwhelming. You cannot be serious :facepalm:

    Quote
    "Burnt" refers to marrying to avoid fornication (of the both of them) and burning in hell
    The Greek word St. Paul uses literally means "to burn with passion". I don't think we necessarily disagree here. It is better to marry than to commit sins of impurity
    John 15:19  If you had been of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

  • Such idiocy.

    The section you refer to in Corinthians does not mean for lustful men to marry.

    This is spoken of such as are free, and not of such as, by vow, have given their first faith to God; to whom if they will use proper means to obtain it, God will never refuse the gift of continency.
    Wow do you really think haydock is the only commentary?

  • Under no circuмstance would i believe that God would tell a "man burning with lust" to marry (and thus put the woman in a terrible situation). 

    The man needs to pray and learn to control himself rather than bring someone else into his sin.
    Talk about feminism. So a man with a strong libido is terrible for a woman. Yikes

  • What are you talking about :facepalm: Marriage is literally a remedy for concupiscence.

    The "burnt" St. Paul uses, ("better to marry than to be burnt") means to burn with sɛҳuąƖ passion.

    That's the whole point doofus! It's not a sin if you're married! Are you serious?
     
    And getting burnt by impure passions has the consequence for getting burnt by Hellfire for eternity.

    "Unwitting woman" 

    Oh how sad the state of Trad feminists. Imagine believing that lawful activity with a spouse is sinful. How prudish can you get.

    You know woman can burn with passion as well? Your assumption is sexist against men and women.

    A "man with a strong libido" does not equal a "man burning with lust".

    The Bible section you quote is not referring to actions between spouses.  It is referring to the unmarried.

  • For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that you should abstain from fornication;  4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour:  5 Not in the passion of lust, like the Gentiles that know not God

    Putting aside higher motives, in practice one is not likely to meet a gal and get married in 5 minutes so one needs to learn how to deal with the reality of being a sɛҳuąƖ being, and the attendant urges, whether one likes it or not. 

    It's obviously a sensitive topic and nearly impossible to discuss profitably in groups with mixed maturity levels. Given the dynamics of CathInfo.....

    Exactly.
    Lust is one of the seven deadly sins.

    It's become clear to me that this is true, although the topic doesn't seem complicated to me....
