Using Omegle to sell nude photos of yourself.

I use it to find the rare gem of discussion (like the one posted in the OP) when I'm doing something on the computer but currently waiting for something; sure, I could open up the Bible or something else out of the plethora of books I own, but I find it hard to switch my focus from one intellectually-tasking action to another in a whim.

That's fair, but what about lust as in desire (as discussed in the Omelge conversation, e.g. lust for power)? What would that fall under? Gluttony? Or am I missing something here?

Pride. Idolatry.

A lust for power is still a lust. Lust is not necessarily sexual, though we commonly associate with sex. A lust for power is not necessarily wrong either. You can lust after righteousness or virtue or anything really, since lust can also be understood as a strong desire for something. If it is used in just that sense, the fact that it is lust does not itself show that it is wrong, but what it being lusted after shows whether it is right or wrong.

That being said, in general lust for anything that is neutral is generally harmful and lust for anything bad is obviously bad.

Who has the better opinion about this conversation, the person who wants short-lived pleasure that ultimately destroys their relationships or the Person who created the universe with purposes for the intention for greater glory, yet opposes corruption like adultery. Gee, whatever could be the most logical position of the two.

The only way the first person have any validity if you present the argument as exceptionalism.. Problem with that A.)the adulterer/adulteress is corrupting God's purposes on anthropo-sexuality. B). You cannot separate intimacy or influence from sex. So the sin is definitely going to affect the person who committed it to their surroundings. C). Everyone loves to think they're the exception. If you look at the Western world where cheating is almost expected in a relationship, you'd notice there's a decrease in trust between the sexes, declining birth rates, and an increase in abortion. Yet, these retards say they're only influencing themselves or a negligible group of people.

Lust is immoral according both to traditional philosophers and Scripture.
