No, I think the problem is, that you consider your beliefs as beyond reproach and harmless. I'm trying to show you, that if you're worried that some sexual fantasies may cause harm to vulnerable people, you should also be worried about exposing vulnerable and unstable people to religious fantasies, presented as unquestionable facts.

Now - that really depends on the morality, doesn't it. Women being treated as property was all fine and dandy until not that long ago - and still is in a lot of places. Your bible contains specific instructions on how to properly sell your daughters into slavery and how to murder sexually unfaithful women, including rape victims. If Bob believes, that women are chattel, what will it do to him, when he reads, that they were created as an afterthought, specifically for man's pleasure?
