Answer:
According to modern definitions, concupiscence is an ardent, usually sensuous, longing; a strong sexual desire; lust. 'Concupiscence' is derived from the latin word concupiscentia, meaning "an intense desire". In christian theology, concupiscence is selfish human desire for an object, person, or experience. Based on conflicting ideas of original sin, catholics and protestants have their own respective ideas of concupiscence. For catholics the term has two meanings. In its widest sense, "concupiscence is any yearning of the soul for good; in its strict and specific sense, it means a desire of the lower appetite contrary to reason." For Protestants, concupiscence refers to what they understand as the orientation, inclination or innate tendency of human beings to do evil.
