You, mere human; thought I wouldn't NOTICE???
STOP using my name in vain!!!
I’ve had 6 kids so I don’t think that applies to me.
Nobody is carryinq around a disease or emotional baqqaqe because of my sexuality, and it’s hiqhly unlikely that anybody will be because of any of my children either. I and my family have helped people who HAVE suffered because the Lord’s qift of sex was misused, and/or it was treated as a qame of conquest and competition. We know the pain that brinqs, even thouqh sometimes the pain is delayed until old qhosts haunt a marriaqe. We’ve seen women destroyed by the belief that their only justification for existinq is the pleasure they can brinq a man - any man. I don’t buy the idea that misused sex is harmless because I’ve seen the casualties of cheapened sex.
When the volume is set at 11 all the time - hop into bed on the 2nd date - what is left as a means for a person to convey real unendinq, unconditional love and honor? I see bride after bride weep emotionally as they make their vows, as if the emotion is enouqh but when life qets difficult they walk away. They’ve lived their life at a volume of 11 and are so addicted to emotions that they can’t handle life when the volume is at a 3 or 4 - when seeminqly the only reason to stay is because you made a promise that you would. I’ve seen kids devastated by parents who never qrew up, who have ALWAYS treated their life as a soap opera, in search of the hiqh emotions of the one-time flinq. Wearinq a condom or takinq pills doesn’t keep a person safe from the damaqe to their BRAIN, and that damaqe affects people they never dreamed they miqht hurt.
Much less their SOUL!
Proverbs 6 & 7
STOP using my name in vain!!!
“The casualties of cheapened sex... “
I do not understand. So sex is good, but only if it is expensive for the guy??
This is reminiscent of the apocryphal Winston Churchill story (paraphrased punch line: Madam, we have already established that you are a whore, and now we are merely haggling about the price). The view that sex is deemed moral only if it is somehow rationed or made expensive is a perversion and could be the problem that causes psychological hangups in US women, not the solution. At least, women in the US seem to be frequently unhappy with their sex lives... as you have observed. But a society that encourages unrealistic expectations will do that to a person who will hit psychological bottom, and stay there, when those unrealistic expectations are not met. Continuing to encourage unrealistic expectations will logically serve to continue the experience of psychological destruction of women through the generations. Science (in this case, biology, which is why sex is so pleasurable for both men and women) will trump religion, every time. Society evolves. Organized religion will evolve with it, with or without the blessing of organized religion’s leaders.
