First off, a few things to start off, I am not married, and an unlikely to be withing the next couple years. However, in my reading and studying the Bible, lust is something that I've been interested in understanding a bit better.

My understanding of lust is looking at someone through a lens of "I want to have sex with this person," as in Matthew (I forgot the chapter), Jesus says that looking lustfully at a person is the same as commiting adultery with them in your heart. This raised the question, can you list after the person you are married to, or is there a different word for it? You can't commit adultery with the person you're married to, so is it the same term/concept, or is there a different word for it?

Secondary question, what is lust, not as in the sin, I understand that. I mean like how love is both emotions and action, is lust also and emotion and action?

(Sorry if I put the wrong flairs on this, I wasn't sure)

I was talking to someone recently and trying to explain why we are born sinners, and they asked how it is fair that we are punished for Adam and Eve's choice to eat the fruit. I didn't know how to explain. I understand that God said the curses would be passed down, but how do you explain it? For clarification, they specifically asked "why is it fair?" and I didn't know how to explain

I'm watching the movies again because they just released on Netflix, and, ignoring the other issues, the ages are so funny. First off, you're telling me that 16 year old Percy couldn't beat lazy, half-drunk Gabe? Also, assuming Annabeth's backstory is the same (as she says she's been at camp her "whole life" and "only been outside a handful of times") she's been at camp since she was 7, which mean that, instead of 5 years at camp, it's been 9, and that Thalia would be in the tree for 9 years too.

Edit: not a plot hole, but I couldn't think of another title
