false teaching? Isn’t there pleny of teachings in the bible for us to give up our selfish desires? That doesn’t disclude sex...there is obviously a time for it and where it is mentioned it is in the context of having children...that is commonsense. And Paul even said that it is sometimes better to not be married, but better to be married then to burn. That is implying that there is some weakness to overcome. Doesn’t your experience show you that you are weakened in spirit if you enjoy sex a bit too much? Where is your commonsense in this? Why do you think so many criminals are invovled with porno? There is a direct connection to sex and our lower nature...just see how you can get a sexual urge after becoming angry and judgemental. It’s wrong to try and rationalize not overcoming the need for sex by using the bible.
