Why would anyone want to do that to someone they love? Your argument is really sick.

If my wife finds the sensation of a wax candle that produces relatively low heat as it melts being dripped over her back, then why shouldn't I want to do it? If it doesn't harm her, and she wants me to do it as a bedroom game, why not? Just because it doesn't punch your clock is no reason to brand others doing consensual stuff, not terribly damaging stuff in their own private bedrooms as perverts who need to be locked up "for their own protection". You CAN do a lot of this stuff with some relative degree of saftey, you know. What, do you think this is Saudi Arabia or old-school Afganistan? Maybe you would be more comfortable there?

Or if my wife finds it a turn on for me to spank her, or flog her, who are you to judge what we do in the privacy of our own homes?

Now, if it's a situation where the wife hands me a knife, and says "Stab me, that turns me on", that is obviously quite different. I wouldn't want my wife to hurt herself, and I certainly won't be a party to helping her. And I don't believe that someone can consent to being killed, except in some extrodinarily rare circumstances.

You sound like a theocratic Socialist, who thinks its just fine to spy on people in their own homes, and whose beliefs must mirror your own precisely.

But what I might hypothetically do is irrelevant here. The point of this post is that a Christian Church is renting out it's space to other groups of people so they can do Sex Workshops. The question is: Is this an acceptable thing for a Christian Church (or any religious institution) to be doing, even if they aren't directly sponsoring it? And my answer is: No, probably not, although they can do what they want to do, as long as they are made to deal with the consequences of their actions.
