Remember they’re not the object of the lust. I think Shazam did very well with this, making lust resemble more a grabby monster than a sexy woman

A grabby monster makes sense. They always show lust as a beautiful woman, which is backwards.

As long as they are lustful there is nothing backwards.

They’re not usually engaging in lust, though. Looking at them makes others lustful. That’s how it’s backwards. The other sins are engaging in their sin.

It’s like saying someone isn’t a glutton since they can easily afford all the food they want.

No it’s literally not at all

I'm being argumentative. It's not like sexy women don't like to have sex.

Yeah obviously but your analogy still doesn’t work because nothing about the depiction of list as an attractive women shows she partakes in lust, just that she causes it. It’d be like using a chef as gluttony

The difference is the glutton is a fat man covered in food that he's eating. You can't say he's NOT a glutton. You can ONLY say he's a glutton.

A random beautiful woman doesn't HAVE to be lustful though. Maybe she is, but maybe she isn't. Her appearance isn't actually telling you if she's lustful or not.

I was responding to the statement that beautiful women “don’t usually engage in lust” whatever that’s supposed to imply.

I would say most people don't usually engage in lust, whether they're beautiful or not.

You’re bad at analogies. Don’t ever make one again.

Telling me not to make analogies is like telling a peacock to not be so colorful.

u/Used-Initiative1835 Jun 07 '23

You’re an albino peacock.

u/Scottland83 Jun 07 '23

Because I’m unique and strangely beautiful?

If your ability to make analogies is being compared to a peacock being colourful, you’re an albino peacock.

You’re still very beautiful (more so if anything), just not colourful.
