This is why Christians have so many problems in the area of sexuality. Even in monogamous relationships, they carry around a lot of guilt over having BASIC, HUMAN DESIRES. This causes unnecessary complexes and neurotic behaviors that serve no purpose other than to cast stones against those who are just experiencing normal human reactions when it comes to having chemistry with another person.
If you act on every desire, sure that could be detrimental. But, this is just another way for Christians to pretend they think "higher" than the rest of us heathens.
I actually do not have any problems in the area of sexuality. The ability to have sexual intercourse and to be intimate with one's spouse is a gift from God. It is good and pure and sacred.
And yes I do believe sexual intercourse within the confines of a heterosexual marriage is more beneficial than sexual intercourse any other way. I speak from experience.
I will say from a secular perspective, sex sometimes messes up a good relationship for me. Biologically, people bond through it. But, I used to view it as you for religious reasons and now when I'm involved with someone on a more serious level, that residual guilt is still with me. We shouldn't feel guilty for choosing to have sex outside of marriage. Christians didn't invent marriage btw. Pagans did and it was solely for secular reasons, not to honor a god.
But think as you choose. :-)
Hey thanks, Napoleon for the above "fix!"
