Is it a sin to torment some 1?

Seems like it would be. O: I just go by what seems mean. And tormenting seems rather mean. ^^;;; And why don't you cut and paste if you want people to read whatever it is you've written in your journal?;

if it turns into a lustful thing then yes. however sins of the flesh can become quite complicated.

for example: and married couple that practice the ways of bondage is basically sexual torture. however if either enjoy it then no, in THAT case torturing someone would be sinful if they enjoyed it and wanted it.

however in regular causing of purposly inflicting harm on someone without regard to how it affects them....if its a sin directly im not sure. however its in human nature to hurt and destroy and will only lead to negative consequences....but again is it a sin? a sin directly i have no idea but the lord does say....

"thou shall love that neighbor". and if something directly opposes that idea (mainly torture which is the complete opposite) then yeah its probably a sin.

Anything against the will of God is a sin. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

But tormenting can be more than just inflicting harm... it can be to annoy or pester someone constantly, and stuff like that, too. (In fact, that's usually the content I hear it in.) That's not really.. horrible, I guess, but it's certainly not nice.

love thy neighbor= not to piss them off xD however people can unintentionally rub each other the wrong way, which is simply just personality clash. ive had it quite a few times and it didnt seem what i did, i annoyed the person.

torture= malicious intent like murder. i guess it only matters if its malicious :/

one of the commandments is to "love your neighbor as you love yourself" meaning, yes, it would b a sdin if you do not love and respect the person as you do yourself...unless you feel the way bout urself as you treat them...then i guess its not...but still, i believe it would b, because ur not following the commandment...i'm still an amatuer with this kinda stuff, so i may b a lil shaky in a few areas, but i'm quite sure tha its not write, and a sin, in certain ways
