"Ah well, the devil makes us sin...but we like it when we're spinning in his grip."

True or false? For some, doing something sinful is actually painful to them, their psyche, and their morality. So for them this quote is false and does not apply to them. To all the rest, the majority I'd say, the quote holds as much truth as does Einstein's theory of relativity. Who ever indulges in a sin knows full well what they are doing can be frowned upon, and will be frowned upon (but if you ask Einstein, that's all a matter of relativity, because one mans sin is another mans day to day behavior). While actually going forth with whatever one may find sinful, the truth of the matter holds no clout. Who cares, I'll have fun now and repent later. It might be the biggest downfall of humanity to think this way, because really...who sits down and wholesomely repents something that made them feel so happy? Remembering what that happiness felt like, no matter how short lived, can stop anyone from regretting it all together. So what's the solution? Stop having sinful thoughts...right, like that's going to work. It's human nature to want to do forbidden things. That need is intertwined into the very essence of our beings. Some act on it, and others have the gift of resistance. I can say one thing for sure though, it's easier to resist temptation in the beginning than at the end. But the devil beckons, and finally we succumb.
