Try this: Memorize some bible verses. Verses that praise God. Verses that gives some of Gods promises would also be good. Anytime the thought comes, then say the bible verse in your head. Even Jesus was "tempted". Each time he was tempted by the Devil, Jesus quoted scripture. I heard it once that is a good way for us to deal with similar temptations. God Bless you.

I agree with mtnlady. Take notes. Remember everyone drifts, just try to focus and maybe when you have these thoughts you could say a prayer.

the more you think and worry about it the more it will happen. consider it like Tourettes syndrome of the brain and just say to yourself, oh well, it's only thoughts, they come and they go. the less importance you put on your thoughts the more you will feel in control

Avoid a church at all cost. Spend your time at a natural history museum.

I agree, taking notes helps me. When you are having inappropriate thoughts, just shake them off and ask God to help keep them at bay. Good luck.

By not treating them as a big deal and not trying to avoid or suppress them. Just let them come up, look at them, laugh at them, don't see them as a big deal and eventually they won't be. Don't try to even anticipate that you're trying to get rid of them-- just don't give any power to them.

Pray, read good Books, Repent. If Christ was sitting next to you how would you act?
