That Catholic Church has no other "interpretation" of this.
So your interpretation is not in accordance with the Church's?
I meant the Church has no other interpretation of what Jesus meant by looking at a woman lustfully, other than the one I provided. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

And that's one reason, but not the only one (getting back to the thread topic) that I assert that belief in the Christian god in no way means that morality is objective.
That is fine. I respect your opinion.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
