Just a few years after that, one of the old gang was on active duty while in the army reserves; he happened to spot Harry coming out of the on-base movie theater. Harry was beside himself at being caught in the sin of going to a movie. I haven't heard word one about the guy since.
Geez, how did we define the "sin nature"...? It really wasn't synonymous with "physical nature"; I guess it was just the part of our spiritual being that was inclined to do sinful stuff. My family were never fanatical enough to utter any of that stuff when I was growing up, so I guess I was able to let some of it slide off when I encountered it. Even at the institute, the faculty and administration were too normal and healthy to brand sexuality itself as sinful.
