And this is bullshit I've heard from the Pope as well: they think there is some propaganda pressed on people to have joyful sex "It all started in the 1960s when people were told they are allowed to have sex out of wedlock and the whole hell broke loose"
If you are only going to have sex while being married, you would have to get married very young which is what mormons do.
This creates a new problem. Now, you have kids with someone you don’t like anymore after a few years. So, you end up unhappy.
Either you get divorced or you obey your church and stay married. Both conditions will lead to unhappiness.
Or maybe, you want to be divorced and live alone for the rest of your life which gives you happiness.
Or maybe, you want to marry someone else and be happy.
The other problem with getting married and having kids at a young age is that it interferes with modern life: living in a city, going to university.
In the old days, this wasn’t a problem. People were married at age 14 and they started taking care of the farm and pumping out kids to work on the farm.
Very few people keep the same friends as they had as kids all the way into adulthood.
So, what are the chances that you want to stay with the same guy/gal until you die at age 80?
What about contraception? Shouldn’t that be banned according to christianity?
What if I don’t want having 80 kids.
I would love if these guys come to these forums and offer solutions.
