Excellent article & comments.
As a senior citizen, I reflect a lot on my farm laborer grandparents. God made sure that humans were physically and emotionally engaged in building shelter, raising animals for food and freight. Our ancestors also welcomed the birth of all children and cared for sick family members. There was no ‘wasted’ time, no room for lazy. God made sex pleasurable so that it resulted in new life for the future.
Today, someone else produces our food, builds our homes, manufactures our clothing, transportation and takes care of children and sick family members. We are losing our natural skills except for sexual activity which has increasingly become unnatural........it is not resulting in childbirth as God intended.
The younger generation may be having a lot more fun - but I sense there is a lot less joy.
