My understanding is that the point was . . . believers in Heaven are not given in marriage and don’t exist as seriously wired seriously sexual beings engaging in all that in Heaven. THAT was the point, imho.

Correct.

Christ was dealing with a question by the Sadducee's' who asked if woman had 7 husbands, whose wife would she be in heaven in the Resurrection.

Note that they used 7 and not just two as if adding more numbers would add to the problem!

Christ rebuked them for not knowing scripture nor the power of God.

Christ said in the Resurrection (not now) they will be as the Angels in heaven, who do not marry.

So much for the Mormon doctrine of marriage in heaven! (Matt.22:23-33)

Yeah, well . . .

RC’s aren’t the only group with rubber Bibles.
