I just don’t get that legalistic about it.
For me, all things are ok, but not all things are profitable. Sex between me and my wife is a VERY good thing on a lot of levels. It is one of God’s greatest gifts, right up there with enjoying a really good Burger, or Bourbon.
Islam is the a “letter of the law” religion.
Christianity is a “spirit of the law” religion. He leaves the small decisions to us and asks us to consider the context.
My wife and I are over sixty, contraception is not an issue. It doesn’t mean God says we’re no longer allowed to have sex. And I can find no scripture that says that if you DO have sex with your wife in the fertile years, you are required to enable it to result in birth.
We have six kids. We were both altered to be sterile after that.
Burgers are great, and so is sex!
I don’t see how my post was legalistic, unless regarding normal, natural, healthy sexual design as the norm, is some sort of bigoted imposition.
