Ok so how long do you have to have these thoughts before they become a sin?
is it one second two can you want someone dead for a whole minute before its a sin?
When exactly does 'fleeting thought' become a want, cant you want something for a short time then change your mind?
You talk as if you know all the answers when you are just spouting shit.
Ever how long it takes to become a desire in your heart. A passing moment in anger probably would not qualify, to stew over it for a while until you "want" it to happen would qualify.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
