Why?
That is not what you said in post number 3. Do I need to re post it for you?
Uhhhh. You wrote that. I messed up on the quote part. Re read it so yes.

"All that feels like" in the context of what you said refers to sex in general. Because you made no distinction between sexual experiences and deemed them bad, you are inferring all sexual experience is bad.
Which is why I asked why do you think all sexual experience is bad?

I think- though he can correct me if I'm wrong- that he was arguing from a biblical position there, not one that he necessarily holds himself. If sex before marriage is adultery, and Jesus was never married, and he experienced sex...
Not to mention, the bible is pretty down on sex to begin with.

even so one does not have to be married to experience sexual urges and desire. We know Christ was well aware of these desires because of what He said in Mat 5 (if you look at a woman lustfully your guilty of commiting adultry.) This awareness of lust means He was tempted by it at some point.

That is one of the reasons Christ was born into humanity.. So He could experience ALL of the same emotions and sin we are tempted by.
...Without the possibility of ever actually succumbing to it. How cute.

If there wasn't a possiablity, Satan would not have taken the time to temp Christ in that 40 days He spent in the desert.

And yet so many christians rush to tell me that Jesus was sinless...
Also, incidentally, an unmarried man can't commit adultery, by definition. Just saying.

Unless you can furnish scriptural evidence that Jesus experienced a multi-orgasmic squirter with an attenuated gag reflex, a penchant for occasional bum sex, and a deep need to be spanked, I'm afraid I have to call bullshit.

Where did you learn that god was free of all negative human emotion? I'm sure its well documented in the bible that god feels anger and so on.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
