Yep, regardless of if a person belives in Him or not, God can control their appetite for sex. I've known for a long time that he could do this, I just didn't know how it does it.

I admit, this is only a concept, I'm not going to bother giving examples to some one who does not believe in a higher power. Do you believe in a higher power?Please, give us some solid examples of how God is using hormones, and manipulating our sex drives, to his purpose. And then explain why. And then offer some proof.
Seriously dude, this idea is as off the wall as they come. But then again, you guys think he helps you find your car keys and stuff too so I don't know why I'm suprised at this
We've gone through this before, R&B. You seem to be semantically obfuscating your argument for your own benefit. Whether life was created by God, Raven or atheistically is irrelevant. As you state yourself, hormones are produced biochemically. Biochemical processes are known. We no longer believe that illness is caused by evil spirits, and we now know that hormones are not controlled by God.life doesn't come from biochemistry. Life comes from God. Biochemistry is merely the process God uses to do give and sustain life.
Hormones are produced. In others words they are created. Biochemstry doesn't produce anything. Organs produce hormones biochemically.
A man builds a chair, he uses a process called carpentry to accomplish it. You can't say that carpentry built the chair. Man built the chair
I did think it over, and I examined it in the light of Gods Word also. And it lines up with everything I've learned from real life experiences and the knowledge I have of Gods Word.Um...no. You should really think before you write things like this because it makes you look like a total wingnut. No offense, but come on.
Yes. Go on. (I'm particularly interested in what you've found in scripture to support your position.)I did think it over, and I examined it in the light of Gods Word also. And it lines up with everything I've learned from real life experiences and the knowledge I have of Gods Word.
From personal experience I know that something controls the sexual appetite.The desire for is sex fluctual, it can be either raised or lowered. Biology has proven that this is the result of a hormone performing a specific function that it has been designed to do. Biology also proves that this hormone is a substances produced by an organ in my body.
Agreed so for??????
"You seem to be semantically obfuscating your argument for your own benefit" That's a "brush off" anyone can use for the benifit of thier own argument..We've gone through this before, R&B.

If a biologist can produce the substance that controls my sexual appetite then certainly a higher power could do the same thing also.Yes. Go on. (I'm particularly interested in what you've found in scripture to support your position.)
Lay it all out on the table. I'm not going to respond with "Yes, go on" to a dozen posts.If a biologist can produce the substance that controls my sexual appetite then certainly a higher power could do the same thing also.
Agreed???????
Wait a minute, lets back up. Somehow I've been misunderstood.Lay it all out on the table. I'm not going to respond with "Yes, go on" to a dozen posts.
Again, the question is not whether God is capable of doing this. Your claim is that He in fact does manipulate hormones, so you must show that God is actively doing so. That He has the ability to do so does not show that He is using this ability.
Something else that you would be shocked to know is that God is not subject to any of the laws pertaining to nature or physics, and that these laws are in reality subject to Him..
No, it's really not the best part of my belief system. I'll tell you what the best part of my belief system is. God's plan of salvation is what I consider to be the best part of my belief system.This is the best part of your belief system. It allows you to disregard everything mankind knows as true and imagine whatever you want. That being the case you shouldn't really try to debate because the no matter what is offered to you it can be dismissed with a simple "God can do anything!!!!!!!!". And, in your own imagination, he does.
Real nice fantasy world you got going there.
Thanks for the reply.
Experiencing practical everyday real life lessons are really the best way to learn anything aren't they? Even the Christian feels like he is "winging it" sometimes.
I've concluded that We cannot life being afraid of what might happen. the decision making process should be governed by priciple rather than consequences.
believe it or not I've done everything on the list you 've given. I've had sex, trusted people, gone outside, used a gas stove, had children and played hockey. All and all, I dont regret doing any of them. Ironically, the only thing on the list that I've done that caused harm to someone else are some of sexual relationships that I've had.
God does not save us, God merely experiences existence through us, and lets us save or not save ourselves!!No, it's really not the best part of my belief system. I'll tell you what the best part of my belief system is. God's plan of salvation is what I consider to be the best part of my belief system.
You see, a person can believe in God and that God can do anything, but this alone will not save them.
Do you have belief system? If so, what do you consider to be the best part of it????
Fornication as in sex with very many people is Tiring! It takes away time that could be spent doing something constructive.
If you seriously don't understand why sex w/o marriage (committment) can be a problem for society, and should as a whole not be advocated, go watch a few Jerry Springer shows.
And yes, I understand that it's the committment, not the marriage that matters.
