Well, there is a difference in recording historic events and expressing doctrine. But your point is taken.

I was exaggerating a little ;-). I think my main point is that human beings don't need to be told that we derive sensual pleasure from sex. Duh! What we need, and what we find in our religion, is guidance that places our nature desire in a context in which our sexual relationship can rise above simple mammalian copulation.

To the extent that our analysis emphasizes "It's good because it feels good," without considering a purpose built into our creation, we're likely to go astray.
