@Greatest I am please don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that I control instinct any more I'm saying that choose when to sneeze.
Although some instincts have an overwhelming hold on our behavior, others do not have the same hold on my agency - I can choose when I piss given the urge (for as long I'm able to hold it in). I'd like a better grasp on this, from my POV, esoteric concept of sin.

Also, some opinions on 2 things you mentioned about banning as per criminalization under the law and censorship struck me as counterproductive. Censoring people, in this case Christian theology, would just push it underground, unchallenged. Criminalization would have a similar effect.
