Organized religion vs. sexual freedom

Organized religion has a huge problem with human bodies and human sexuality. It believes that you aren't allowed to have sex unless you're a legally married heterosexual couple. Anything else, you're an evil heathen who's going straight to hell when you die.

Sometimes this goes to ridiculous extremes. "Purity" balls, "accountability partners", tv blocking software, wearing full length pants at a water park in summer, slow dancing forbidden at school dances, grown adults being chaperoned on dates, and moral crusades to shut down strip clubs and "adult" video stores.

It's not only ridiculous, it's insane. Even as a believer myself I find it nauseating.

What are you guys' thoughts on this?

 

Yes, god created us to sit still and read a book.

 

Going back to some centuries, it is shown that religion was often used to control, deceive, invade, brainwash. Or a combination of the above. Still happening today in many countries and places.
There is more but I said enough.

 

I wouldn't necessary blame religion per se, just busybody hypocrites who think they have a right to sit in judgement on others who are doing no harm. Let him who is without sin ....

In many cases organised religion has been far too lax in permitting and covering up the most appalling exploitation of children.

 

It not just religion, it’s also governments and society’s acting against sex freedom. I do have my spiritual beliefs and balance that with my sexual freedom, My wife and I are nudist and in the lifestyle as an ethical non monogamous married couple. We use religion as a moral compass for our integrity and high ethical standards. We are perfectly happy with our lifestyle.

 

Turning a blind eye to the abuse, yes absolutely.
The hypocrisy, it takes too much to have them change and punish the offenders.

 

On the plus side of organized religion, many people discover that forbidden fruit is much more delicious than following the rules of their religion.

As an agnostic, I appreciate helping them bust through their taboos and experience an explosive orgasm.

Sometimes in the afterglow, I offer to role-play as a priest in a confessional booth. I always grant forgiveness.

 

Organized religion <<<--->>>organized crime....hmmm.....
