Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Common Interests When did sex become wrong?

Yes, search for Text (in at least two or more translations) that says that "pre-marital sex" is bad. This is what the Church is spewing out and it boils over into government.

As for the Genesis text, God was talking to ADAM AND EVE!!!!
They where the only two frickin' human beings!!! Of COURSE he was telling them to multiply!!!

The whole "no birth control" really bugs me because it means that the only use for sex is for makin' da babies. What the hell is an ORGASM for??????? I don't know about some people, but I do like my daily dose of endorphines.

Without birth control, you either have 50 some-odd kids, or you have two married individuals that are fairly frustrated and quite sad (for no damn reason!)

Get snipped, use the pill, slip on a jimmiecap, and go to town! If she still gets preggo, then there's a sign that God meant for you to have a baby anyway!

Of course, lots of prayer and really good ears also helps you to figure out what God wants you to do with your life (and future others)

You should get a copy of that paper. Sounds like an interesting read.

I'm practising, all the time, on making babies. So that when the time comes to actually make one, I'll know how to do it right!

Hightower, you bring up an interesting point. "Orgasm" and ejaculation are actually two different functions happening simulataneously. In one of the books I've recently read it expands on how to separate these two functions basically allowing for the actual ejaculation to be stored up as a function of reproduction only whereas orgasm can be reached again and again. More or less it's a study based in Toaism.

In regards to the main question posted 3 pages back, there have been some very good points brought up in regards to our origins of settlement versus the way our society has turned to relying on sex to sell. My take on everything is that sex gets a bad rap because it's easy to sensationalize. It makes for popular media coverage on slow news days and we as a society continue to feed on that coverage. On the other hand I don't feel there is enough being done to promote healthy relationships overall including healthy sexual relationships.

I would think with our divorce rate and the main problems listed for divorce being money or sexual issues that the church is failing to properly address these issues. To continue on with teachings of impropriety and immorality is like sticking your head in the sand. I'm not saying the churches should be promoting porn or anything of that nature, but a sermon or two geared towards how to explore healthy sexuality with your partner would get me interested in going back.

As far as my own personal experience goes, those of you that have been around the boards for a number of years will most likely remember that I've been close to divorce and worked hard to get our marriage back on track and to the point it's at today. There is definitely something to be said about teaching people how to communicate and explore in a fun and exciting manner. As a subnote, as a few members are aware, my wife and I are currently looking into a new project that will hopefully do our part in contributing to furthering the education and exploration of couples on this subject, wish us luck

That's fine by me Tim. But, if church is meant to be fostering healthy marriages, then how would you propose church deals with the issue of divorce when it deals with sex, sexual disfunction, cheating, etc, etc. Considering our current divorce rate in the country, I don't want to hear how they're currently approaching it or have in the past because to me it's not working.
