@REEEEEEEE123 at the same time, morality shouldnt only be followed after the bible

what

@shovel wdym

i mean that

theres some limits

of human decency

as in not having casual sex

even if its encouraged by the bible doesnt mean you should do it

casual sex isn't encouraged in the Bible.

It isn't casual between a wife and a husband.

Im talking casual sex between a husband and wife

This is deeper and richer than sex for pleasure, and it is certainly biblical to appreciate sex as a physical manifestation of God's statement that "they [the husband and wife] shall become one flesh"

^^^

Its more than just casual

intentionally thwarting sex's natural end to procreation is immoral

its like vomiting out food after eating to continue enjoying the taste

Thats not what Im arguing.

okay I thought you were arguing for contraception

lol no

Sex is fine as long as you’re married and are open to the possibility of a child while doing it.

there is a spiritual/emotional aspect of sex, thats one reason why rape is so bad cuz of the emotional damage

There’s a reason that St. Paul writes how when you fornicate with a prostitute that you both leave a piece of one another with you.

Sex isn’t “just sex.” It is a spiritual transaction.

@Indra The bible does say that a married couple can mutually agree to temporarily not have sex but that they should eventually "join back together" to ward off evil influences

There is a specific verse, not sure which

There have been “brother and sister” type marriages in the past, before. Saints have done it.

Though the priest usually would encourage consummation for spiritual reasons.

St. John of Kronstadt is a relatively recent example.

What are these "brother and sister" marriages?

I but they are common in alabama

No sex ever.

No, this isn’t about incest.

They live as if siblings more than lovers.

St. John of Kronstadt was more worried about his priestly duties than consummating his marriage, for example.

His wife begged him once to at least just consummate since they’d been married for many years, but he insisted they instead prayed all night to ward off the passions.

I’m not really arguing a specific point, just contributing something neat to know.
