Alright, alright....
Intentions ARE thoughts but only part of the thought process which include emotions, decisions ect.
An intention is really a PLAN.
What you PLAN on doing or what type of OUTCOME you projected to happen.
People aren't punished becasue they THOUGHT about robbing a store or THOUGHT about killing someone...because that's what a concience and reasoning is for.
People often change their minds.
Like me, when I decided to answer your question. 8)
You aren't punished for what you THINK, but only for what you DO.
