are they possible to face against lust?
PS: Sorry, this is serious question..not a making-fun one.

I don't really understand the question and have no predjudice against the questioner because she is obviously new to the English language ....
But I feel she is expressing predjudice towards gay people for being uninhibited in sexual activity (lust ?). Maybe she is repressed gay herself and deeply Catholic ? Maybe she has problems ? Wish I knew where she was coming from ?
Sure gay guys and girls are less inhibited .... they're often celebrating something that they had to hide for so long .... and there is less comittment to "long term" if you don't have the responsibility of kids ? Lets face it most marriages survive a few extra years because of the children ....
I too find myself in a "Candy Land" of new sexual possibility (post op TS woman) .... is my deadly sin lust or gluttony (in a sexual manner of speaking) ?

~It may be a serious question, but it is neither an articulate nor an intelligent one. Try asking again later, but next time, try asking it in English.
If I follow the first part of the query, if I was gay and lust was attractive to me, I would have no qualms about putting my face against him/her.
Now, is love a sin? Seems to me there was this unmarried middle-aged (indicative of gay?) Jewish fella back a couple thousand years ago that preached about the goodness of love and started a revolution that has caused millions of deaths in his name (and, by extension, in the name of love) and is still killing folks by droves today. All in his name and in the name of his daddy - who is the same big mucky-muck in the sky on all sides, just using a different alias. So, what is the real sin. Swallowing the superstitious hogwash and abiding by its dictates, no matter who you hurt or kill in the process, or living a decent life, accomplishing some good with it and sharing it with a companion and partner.
To la mas deseada:
I love the list, especially 4 and 5. However, I am assuming a connection between 1 and 2 that you did not intend. (Never mind, I've got some vinegar and water.)

Why would gays be any more guilty of the sin of lust than straights?
Here's a strange notion - we do other things than roll around in constant lust.
Things like...wash the dishes. Scoop out the cat litter. Try to put a Christmas tree up with the hope that it doesn't crash to the floor in fifteen minutes.
I can honestly say that I've never been consumed by "lust" for any of those jobs.

Beats me hollow, my favorite deadly sin is Sloth and since I'm not Catholic I don't know what most of the others are. Lust Anger and Pride are obvious. I'm sure all of them apply equally to everyone gay or straight

I'm no religious scholar, but I thought the 7 deadly sins applied to everyone - heterosexual and homosexual.
And if there was ever any doubt, just hit up a local high school and tell me if the teenage boys there are able to resist lust.... or gluttony.. or sloth... or pride...

I'm not sure what you're asking.
Sodomy (gay sex) is a sin. Lusting after someone is a sin.
I don't think the other 6 deadly sins have much to do with homosexuality.

Remember we all fall far below the Lord's highest Goodness, and just have to trust in his forgiveness, my cousin mentioned this to me last week and I'm no saint, had so many girlfriends in my younger years it was ridiculous, and I'm a guy, so even if you're gay, straight or whatever, nobody is perfect, and Jesus told us not to judge others either ... good luck worship God as you can and find the light where it shines...

It's not up to me to judge.....I don't care if someone is gay or not. As far as I'm concerned, our God made us the way we are......it's up to Him to judge. I ALSO know the Bible was written by humans (who are NOT PERFECT) so..........go figure. I think things were added and subtracted from what it reallly is. Just my opinion. I am a Christian but not judgmental........as I don't believe that is the way I'm supposed to be. I know -- in my heart -- what is right and wrong and I just have to go by that. I don't think being gay is a sin -- just the way my heart feels.
