I realized something.
Every desire is a necessity.
thirst is a necessity for water, hunger is a necessity for food.
similarly, lust is a necessity for connection.
anger is a necessity for coherence.
hatred is a necessity for respect.
Every emotion as we name them, are necessities.
Ego arises when we deny ourselves our necessities, like a child that doesn't want to eat their vegetables.
We do not accept ourselves, deny ourselves out necessities, emotions arise, and we call them temptation and sin.

Inflated ego over-indulges their emotions, deflated ego denies their emotions, both create more suffering, when all that is needed is acceptance and meeting one's own needs.
