sounds like mind control to me!

Not always true!

It's clear that you crave what you already know is wrong or a sin. If you think it's fun to kill your fellow man, you're to sick to realize that being a sin and a wrong against humanity and civilization is the least of your worries. I don't know your age but if you think sex and drinking are sins, you are wrong again. Both, in moderation and, under the rules of the civilization you live within are not sins if the established rules are followed. It sounds like you want freedom without accountability. It's not so much mind control as it is learning from those who have made these mistakes before you and have made some simple rules to minimize others from repeating them.

You are wrong, God wants us to have fun...just not at the comprimise of sinning. Before I was a Christian, the things that I now know as sin, did not bring any joy to my life...sure I believed the lie that the world has swollowed from Satan that those activities are fun...but I did not need anyone else to tell me...I knew that they were not fun, as a matter of fact, I was constantly on the search for what would really make me happy. None of those things ever did, they made me less happy. It wasn't until I accepted Jesus as my own personal saviour that I knew the real meaning of joy. And I didn't know anything about the Bible, or what Christians really call sin and joy etc...I just knew the minute Jesus forgave me at the moment he entered into my heart, for the first time ever I knew true joy! My hope for you Breanna, is that in this attempt to dispell the "myth" of the Bible, God and Christianity...is that you find the truth, that Jesus Christ, God wrapped in flesh, loves you and died for you and all you have to do is accept what the Bible says about Him, His death, burial, and ressurection. Then ask him to forgive you of your sins. He will do it. He wants to do it, He died for you. He loves you.

NOT TRUE!!! For example, enjoying a day at the beach with my family is fun, but not a sin; listening to music in the comfort of my home is fun, but not a sin; answering silly questions on Yahoo Answers is fun, and I don't think that's a sin.

No its not, only things that are truly wrong are a sin. Getting the promise of having everlasting life is extremely fun, having all your prayers answered is fun, knowing someone always has your back is fun, knowing that He will never let you down (unlike a man on earth) is fun. What more could you possibly want than to be able to live in heaven and not to burn in hell. Are all those things worth going to hell over?

That's because you love darkness rather than Light.
The things you deem "fun" are only fun to you, because you love that which is filthy and carnal.
People who think like you are lost in unbelief...which is sin.
You need the Baptism of the Holy Spirit.
For me, being with my wife and children is fun.
Studying the Word of God and recieving Revelation is fun.
Everything is fun, but the practice of some things are not in my desire.
And many of them are just not sensible...
Sex is fun, but STD's are not.
Feeling "high" is fun, but the adverse affects of alcohol and drugs are not.
Accelerating very fast is fun, but crashing in an automobile is not.
As a born again Christian, i have fun every day...but my idea of fun and your idea are not going to be the same.
I am free to anything and everything...but that does mean anything and everything are good for me.
You will never know what true freedom is, until you truely know Christ.
Marky-Mark!, you're a reproach to Christ.

You really need to get out of the house. Your warped thinking is not healthy. Do you play a lot of video games? Do you read a lot of comic books? If yes, stop and get a real life. It sounds like you are trying to live in a fantasy world. Try the real world. Go for a walk in the woods. Take a swim at the beach. Look at the stars at night.

Yep. According to a lot of Christians, my joy in meditation is a sin. While it may be a form of prayer, it's not to their god.
Let's go with a more obvious one...sex before marriage. While this may or may not be healthy (i.e. if you have many sexual partners, this could be a health risk), why does that mean it's a sin? If something's unhealthy for you, that's the risk you accept. That's all. :)

Mostly you don't have to forbid people from doing things that are not fun because they wouldn't want to do them anyway! Lots of sins (like killing) aren't fun for normal people, but if they weren't fun for somebody, there wouldn't be much need to forbid them.
Better to concentrate on not hurting anyone and forget about "sin." Lots of harmless things have been called sin. like dancing or card playing. But if it doesn't hurt anybody (including yourself) and isn't against the law, then go ahead and enjoy.

Yeah! Because Sin is fun, let's do it all time! Christ did die for our sins, past, present, and future. And I can rebound and be forgiven as many times I want! And still I have eternal life forever and ever!
And everytime we come back to God, we are doing what Satan and the Fallen Angels couldn't do, which is come back to God.
"For Grace I have been saved, through faith, not of ourselves, but it's the Grace of God!"

The only thing I think is fun that CAN be sinful is sex. Key word CAN be. It is not within a marriage and it is oh so much more fun in a marriage.
