- I have been following this newsgroup literly since day one. From many of
- the post that I have read and from a whole lot of private e-mail discussions
- it has become painfully clear that Walter is right on this one. For many
- sex and morality seem to be one. It has also become clear that this always
- stems from a single thought. That being that sex is a bad, dirty thing that is
- unfortunitly necessary for keeping the race going. I would agree that if sex
- is forced or is used to manipulate then that is a bad thing but I have a real
- hard time beleiving that sex between consenting adults can be immoral. Most
- think that the CHURCH(tm)has always had the same docturne concering sex as
- it does today. The current docturne has been in place for about 400 years.
- BUT previous to that the docturne was that sex was a gift from GOD that
- should be enjoyed *responsible*. Amazing how a universal biological function
- can become entwined with something as abstract as morality ain't it?
