What is sin

So, when God says don't do something, does that also mean don't do anything that could lead to the something as well?
For example, be not drunk on wine....does that also mean do not drink wine at all, which can lead to drunkenness?
Or, flee fornication....does that also mean we should not kiss, rub, have oral sex?

My question is, where do most Christians draw the boundary lines? Well, in the sexual arena, we know that lust is a sin. Therefore, I would think that any activity which causes or perpetuates lust is a sin. So.....that would probably include a lot of things, depending on you as a person: maybe its kissing, or watching adult films, masturbation, oral sex, heavy petting....I can't imagine some of these things being possible without some form of lusting.

But is it wrong to drink? Is it wrong to smoke? What if you aren't addicted to any of these things?

Are some sins worse than others? Is having sex worse than thinking about sex? What about that scripture where Jesus says when you LOOK upon a woman with lust you have committed the act in your heart. It seemed as though it was just as bad to think about it as to do it...

Is it bad to think about sex with someone you are not married to? Is it better to masturbate to keep from cheating on your wife than to actually sleep with the woman you think about? Probably not, if you look at the scripture.

if i didnt run so much.....i'd be a tub of lard. I love food way too much. My food weaknesses:

(1) oke doke hot cheese popcorn, (2) popcorn in general, (3) pastas, (4) cheeses.....crap, all carbs. then, i love chocolate. chocolate with nuts is the best: almonds, walnuts, pecans, cashews....yum yum yum. cheesecake, cheesecake brownies, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, oreo cookie ice cream, chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, strawberry shortcake. i just dont know what its so hard to resist these things.
anywho, i feel like im coming down with something, so i certainly wont be having any of these foods today.
My men weaknesses: my boo boo. But before my boo boo, I nice chocolate brother with smooth skin and a nice smile always made me weak. OW!!!!
