I do hope that there are also some other Gods.
Why? The more the merrier?
Jehovah is the only True God...all other gods are conjured up in the hearts and minds of man...they worship their fleshly desires...
So that he will feel justified in following his fleshly desires...
Don't know much about other religions, do ya?
Who doesn't like a good fleshly desire? I know I do.
We are made of flesh and blood, so that is only natural...it's when we allow our fleshly desires to overrule doing what is right, we get into danger...
That's where I start to develop a problem. Are you saying having sex is wrong? That's what it sounds like you are implying. The old testament tells us to go out and multiply. I don't think it was speaking about arithmetic.

Sure I do...I also know they worship false gods...
Exactly!
Not at all, within the confines of the marriage vow...God is good...
Sex within the confines of marriage good, sex outside of marriage bad? I have an extremely difficult time buying into that thinking. As humans sex is as natural as breathing all that other stuff is somebody or something else telling me what I can and can't do and if I do that thing that I shouldn't, I'm going to hell. I do not subscribe to those ideas at all.
That is your choice...I can see where adhering to God's law on sex & marriage can save a lot of heartaches...I've been cheated on, so I know the feelings of betrayal and lack of trust it brings...
? That fits most of us. My ex wife is my ex wife for a reason. Life went on and god didn't do a damn thing to help my feelings. I don't understand why people try to fight the power of sexual attraction by telling ourselves this that and the other is wrong and sinful and all of that crap to make ourselves feel horrible. All in an effort to try to deny the most basic drive we have. To me that's crazy.
But if all followed that law, how much better marriages would be...and yes, it can be done...millions do it successfully...
What law? Again I have to believe in an imaginary being to believe in any such law, see the problem? I'm married, I commit adultery my wife according to man's law can divorce me. That's law to me not stuff that's been put into a book and changed and changed and changed and then claim to be 'the law.'
I refuse to accept your standards as to what the law means and whose authority I should consider the 'only' authority.
