Subject: Why the long threads on sexual topics? |
Bible Note: Justme I basically agree there are times when the subject is best discussed one on one with both participants being the same gender. However, while I can't recall the specific thread your referring to, I think most discussions here have been on a more general nature. Asking if this or that was prohibited within scripture. I sometimes think many abhorrent sexual acts get condoned, promoted and often accepted because many are not even aware of what the act consist of. Homosexuality is one. Our society has made an art of wordsmithing things into acceptable terms. Most view this as two loving people of the same sex living together never thinking past the ramifications or what may be taking place. While some may have an idea or think they know what transpires only a very few really know what really aberrant and sick acts are common within the life style. Perhaps it is time for the Christian community to take the gloves off and instead of refusing to even mention aberrant sexual acts come out and declare them for what they are, abominations to even the most base sense of normalcy. I fully agree a public forum is not probably the best place to go into an great detail but if we can alert people to the fact that what is being said is not always the whole picture. I think we should and must be careful of overly offending people’s sensibilities but we must bring them to an awareness that what is being portrayed is not what is actually be committed. I say this as one that sat hearing the words spoken for years but never really realizing what was going on or how destructive some practices were. Why because everyone was afraid that even the very mention may offend someone. Our kids are faced with it everyday and it is time to educate the people to what is going on. I was just made aware of the alarming high increase of oral STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) cases effecting 8-9 year old girls. Some locations are fighting 1 in 4 outbreaks because no one is talking about it much less to their children. And the word on the street is oral sex is not really sex and carries no responsibility problems like pregnancy. I’m sorry but this information has to get out however we can get it out. EdB |
