And the only, only thing
That he did that was wrong
Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew . . .


(Can you see that we're arrived at my favorite?)

Shall we know moderation in physical love as in all things, and be the better for it? Are there circumstances which allow the expression of burning desire, or is one better to exercise control of their passions?

How do you feel about lust?

Lust is good, and passion. But, I don't think it's as neccesary as Swimpy seems to think it is. Maybe it is.

littlek, If you feel any lust at all you have to be passionate. Ain't no such thing as luke-warm lust.

No way, swimpy! You can surely have lust without passion!

Rape comes to mind...

I suppose rapists are passionate about something, maybe not passionate sex, but something.

I don't think rape as anything to do with lust, SP.

Who says that lust is a sin? What is wrong with lust, it makes things interesting?


Yeah I know, christians. But I dont really care what they tell me is right and wrong. If you dont hurt others, and minumize on yourself, then I dont see what the deal is.

You tell me?

Oh baby, have you ever left work and literally ran down the street to catch a train knowing the object of your desire is waiting for you when you get off that train?
Lust will make a 40 year old woman run down the street after a hard days' work, sugar. Delicious.

Plus, lust keeps you skinny!

Lust has ruined marriages, and toppled empires. To me, lust is the primal conjoining of two sets of hormones. When that happens, reason usually flies out the window.

That is not to say that PASSION is not desirable for a more exciting and fulfilling life. It certainly is, and has produced poetry, painting and all sorts of other human means of expression of creativity. It has bound people together, and has insured the continuity of the human species.

IMO, pure lust is sexual desire without caring, the expression of heightened hormones, compatible pheramones and nothing more, that is the cause of many of both an individual's and society's problems.
