Re: What other church sanctioned circumstances encourage continued sin? Camilla Send a noteboard - 13/08/2010 11:04:02 AM
Yes it ensures that they will continue their sinning, but so can a lot of other circumstances sanctioned by the church.

Please, give examples. Anyone can say anything is true, but unless you back it up with examples you're spouting nonsense.

The bible states that sex is only for the purpose of reproduction. Nowadays, marriage practically ensures that people will be having sex for fun VERY often.

Where, please, does it say that sex is only for reproduction? I'd like a scripture reference. What book? Which commandment? Which testament?


Hmmm. I suppose a misreading of the Onan story might give that idea.
