It teaches you that your sexuality exists simply to serve your need for selfish pleasure...

It is in these types of statements that the parallels between Christianity-in-practice and Marxism-in-practice stand out with stark clarity.

Christianity seeks to teach its adherents to be selfless, with the help of divine grace. This is in imitation of its founder, who said, "Greater love hath no man than this, to lay down his life for his friends."

Marxism defines "selflessness" by dictatorial and administrative fiat, and imposes it on everyone under its sway, with deadly force if necessary.

If you can't see the difference there, I really can't help you.

Good sexuality, like good commerce, requires self interest as well as mutual interest in both parties. It's a blessing to give. It's a blessing to recieve.

I hope God gives this author a mate soon!

Marxism teaches that sex is a sacrament of self-donating love? Who knew?
