Spirit Vs. Flesh

[daggett]

I was wondeing if there were any Lit readers out there that like me, struggle with the conflict between the spiritual/religious side of their lives and the erotic/sexual side. I would be interested in hearing some views.

Would you rather hear from ex-Catholics, Pagans or Atheists?

I do. You need to be specific in what you want to know.

Don't know if it helps, but the most sexually insatiable fuck buddy I've had in recent years was on her church Board of Trustees... Sunday School teachers can be very hot as well... in other words, your conflict is pretty common...

what conflict?

Your sex drive is at the root of your being...it is the life force of the Universe that creates..it is sacred and therefore should be appreciated in it fullnes for the wondrous thing it is...thats spirituality.....If you want to talk religion...well its just one more way religious leaders divide you against yourself so they can conquer and control you....keep giving those donations!!!

Sexual experiences are religious....

Natural, and healthy. I tend to ignore "religous views" from a belief that instills power in the "righteous" leaders, and rules by the threat of horrible persecution for not be the "correct" type of believer. It is the ultimate perversity of any Creator's scheme to life lived to it's fullest. When you have a full, rich, appreciation for all of what life offers, only then can you feel the real purpose of why were here.

**Do unto others...first!

A religion that makes you feel guilty about natural functions isn't worth your time.
