The Bible does not say, sex should only be engaged in for the purpose of procreation.

Song of Songs is a collection of love poems between a lover an his beloved. It is a beautiful picture of ideal human love and marriage. NIV

Sex should be enjoyed between a man and a woman.

God created Man and Woman. Genesis 2 Chapter NIV

Saying that Bible or God says that sex is only for procreation and not also for enjoyment (though institutional Church might have said so in the past, i don't know)is just an excuse for those who don't really want to seek the truth of Bible or God, but put all things into the same basket, so that they can go on hating God and living according to their own rules....

If, according to the Bible, sex should only be engaged in for the purpose of procreation . . .


The Bible says no such thing.

Do not say that you’re afraid to trust your mind because you know so little. Are you safer in surrendering to mystics and discarding the little that you know? Live and act within the limit of your knowledge and keep expanding it to the limit of your life. Redeem your mind from the hockshops of authority. Accept the fact that you are not omniscient, but playing a zombie will not give you omniscience—that your mind is fallible, but becoming mindless will not make you infallible—that an error made on your own is safer than ten truths accepted on faith, because the first leaves you the means to correct it, but the second destroys your capacity to distinguish truth from error.

I agree.. Looks to me its for fun also..

Prov 5:18-19
18 Let your fountain be blessed,
And rejoice with the wife of your youth.
19 As a loving deer and a graceful doe,
Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;
And always be enraptured with her love.
NKJV

Right. I've always heard it's meant for pleasure between man and woman. BUT (since I don't have a Bible readily available) I'm having a hard time fathoming the way it's worded here. "Let her breasts satisfy you at all times"......

Picture God making something as cool as sex, then saying it's a bad thing. Not gonna happen!

There's a lot of sex in the bible. There's also a lot of right and wrong in the bible. Most importantly knowing God is about finding the good and doing it, being positive and not negative, being helpful and not takers.

God made us to explore, and with that the ability to discern. I totally buy that we as people have twisted words to make them reflect our own uses, but even with this the truth of God's word rings through. How does it ring through and true? Simple, there's a guide. Call it what ever we want but there's a clear guide that helps us in making judgements of good and bad. Don't know a lot of people who look at a piece of friut and choose to bite into a rotten part. What told them it was rotten? Right and wrong is a lot easier than man has made it, and a lot more practicle. Why do we take things that are pretty obvious and turn them into a debate. Self.

The real battle going on with spiritual talks is the thought that we can make the call or there is one that is devine, able to not only make the right call, but created the call.

I for one have to tell you that I have made too many bad calls to say that I am God, however I also have to be fair and say that every time there has been a call for me to make there is something there that is very real trying to show me both sides and guide me to the right decision. Something or someone who already knows and I'm not quite up to that ability on my own. Does that make me a puppet? No, cause I face decisions all day long and go through this same process. I'm I all knowing? No cause I would not even have decisions to make. I'm I able to teach me right from wrong without any help? I would say after 50 some years and seeing that I haven't done so yet the answer would have to be no. So what is that awareness that guides me, outside of my own knowledge and wisdom? That voice that we all have to guide us?

Some may say that it is self, but I'm not so sure I've got the power. And I will not deny that there is something there. Some will call it the collective whole, but the collective whole of what, other people like me? People who are still in learn mode?

Is sex just for popping out kids? Doubt if it would be so much fun if it was only for that. It wouldn't make much sense for God to make it a bad thing, maybe only I (self) can make it into the bad, or people writing translations that are wanting to push guilt over write and wrong.

Some translations do sound like guilt is being promoted, but I doubt if God's word is full of guilt. Man can twist but God's word is spirit and in practice every moment.
