Being attracted to someone sexually means think of that person with you in a sexual manner.. which again qualifies as what you have identified as 'thought crime.'
Which is why I brought A-sexuality into this conversation. If one is not attracted to the oppsite sex, and again is not thinking of the same sex in a sexual way, they are a-sexual and not in any type of sin concerning sex.
However if one is attracted to the same sex in a sexual manner (by thought or deed) they can be identified as being homosexual or gay, and subsequently guilty of a sexual sin. either by thought or deed.
So to say a gay man is guilty of sexual sin just like a heterosexual man outside the confines of a santified marriage. refers to both men's thoughts or deeds concerning sex out side of a santified marriage. Which again is the only biblical pretext in which sex is not considered a sin.
A simple 'yes' would've sufficed.
So even certain thoughts are sinful. What a wonderfully totallitarian world you want to live in Drich. But leave us out of it.
