LOL...I just can't help myself. So with that logic pretty much the only people who can have sex are those who are capable of having children. The notion that sex is "bad" if it's not for the purpose of procreation is something that was cooked up by MEN in power at the time the books of the Bible were written.
Sorry all you elderly women who've gone through "the change"
, you can't have sex anymore. If you do you are a sinner and an abomination.
Sorry all you infertile men and women..tough break, no more sex for you - if you have sex without reproducing you're a big fat sinner.
Sorry all you people who use birth control pills - even if it's for health reasons - you are a sinner.
In the end we are all free to believe what we want - but I think it's wrong for mere mortals to pass ANY judgement onto other about what is deemed "sinful"
