Why do religious types demonize most sexual acts? Honestly.......masturbation....oral sex.....homosexuality.....on and on....why demonize any sexual practice that isn't man on top of woman vaginal?

WTF?

I think it's because many consider the creation of other human beings to be something of godhood and that messing around with that is a slap-in-the-face for a very special gift. But honestly I'm not sure even they really know. The Proclomoation on the Family is about as close to giving reasons as I'm aware.

And what were the reasons given by TPOF?

Then you need to get around more "religious types".

As I recall it's that gender is eternal, and procreation is sacred.

So are cows, to some people. That doesn't say why sex is only acceptable if it's missionary position.

1) Who needs an explanation when it comes to religion? People just believe things are or aren't acceptable. I'm only attempting Old Testament explain so far as I've heard people give reasons. I do not intend Old Testament justify their beliefs.

2) I've honestly never heard anything about taboos regarding position so long as it's between a married couple: wife and husband.

Wool, c'mon... you are still in the guilted clutches of the cult, so since you cannot do much, much more , dry humping is about all you can get, no?

Eddie Murphy said it best:
The best part about having kids is makin' them!


So if procreation is so sacred, is having non procreational sex wrong?

After you have birthed all the tabernacles of clay that a couple can or wants, should you shut the factory down?
