Christianity is not repressive, but it's true, the Catholic religion is pretty sexually repressive. Study after study has shown that, rather than being prudish and sexless, Xtian married people have great and frequent sex. Traditional values, including those about sex, sustain cultural vitality, and personal happiness.

I most assuredly agree. I've known many such couples who had a satisfying marriage, and their love of each other in every way, showed within their lives.

I'd like to submit for your consideration, the idea that people who are not guided by religion are not all messed up, disease ridden libertines. Many of us can make moral choices about sexuality that are life-affirming and positive, even though the society of fifty years ago would have frowned on them.

Now, just why do you think that? Maybe it's because Catholics believe that sex outside of marriage is a sin; and we have the belief that we should confess our sins in a confessional to a priest? Actually any good Christian knows that commiting sins of any sort are harmful to the soul and to the relationship we ought to be nourishing with our Savior, Jesus Christ.

I'm getting tired of ignorant statements about the Catholic faith
