According to BC, the posters at MDB are preoccupied with sex

I'm a healthy male between the ages of 12 and death. I am going to have some preoccupation with sex. Despite that I do all sorts of other productive things, so it's not really a problem. Preoccupation isn't the same as obsession.

So what you're saying is that you can type one handed?

This thread is straight class.

Everybody thinks about sex. The only thing that sets the Church apart from the average person is that it is preoccupied with gay sex.

No. It's a two handed job.

BC, so you think that a thread started about Mark Peterson is a good example of "constantly and worrying" about sex?

I know it is.

How about the other Peterson, the bishop one, the one that asks his interviewees about their sexual activities? The one that grills about the intimate details of their sexual preferences, positions, and I need not go one about that perversion that he and many bishops do on a regular interviewing basis. This happens from 8 years old and on up.

It is your church that is obsessed with sex. It started with Joe and continues into every interview and advancement that anyone tries to achieve in your church through the interviewing process and moral beatings they get from lectures from the likes of (both) Peterson's. Every Mormon couple has a sex policeman, their bishop, in their bedroom with them. The lowly masses never invented the "little factories" speech.

I certainly agree that there are some bishops who take the advice on what to ask for too far or too much. I've actually encountered several of these and set them straight.

BC, please open your eyes and join reality.

How come you are not here with us in reality?

And let's not forget that "happiness is the purpose and design of our existence".

I think what most of you are forgetting is that LDS doctrine is that "the natural man is an enemy to God". These God given desires and abilities are to be used within the bounds the Lord has set. That is what distinguishes us from the animals. We exercise self-control and become Gods thereby. I don't think very many people would agree that the abode of the Gods is like the monkey house at the zoo.

This is very good to hear.

Just out of curiosity, are you also a former bishop?

OK, bc, then set Dr. Dan straight, please.

Is taking 33, or 56 wives, "exercising self-control"?
