Sex Sex Sex!

Now that I have your attention... Personally I think that sex has been given a far more prominent place, even in marriages, than God truly intended it. God does intend for me to get married some day, I hope that it is to a woman that shares a similar opinion. I'm not someone that considers sex taboo or dirty, but I do think that many Christians focus too much on it.

As for its popularity as a search term on these forums, I would be more curious as to how this compares to other forums. Or to the web as a whole. In my eyes, if Christians are more curious/interested in sex than is the rest of the world it would seem worthy of some serious introspection.
This is exactly what I was thinking.

There are simply more important concepts out there to be searching. Okay, "Jesus" and "prayer" are givens. But what of "atonement" or "trinity?" You know, things that clearly matter more than sex.

Quite frankly, I don't understand people who come in here and find this thread silly or particularly flippant. This is a problem.

Probably because most people believe they have a handle on other subjects. Sex is a rampant issue that many seem ignorant about, or have an addiction to something sex related. They already have their beliefs on the deeper issues, most people seem to struggle on the day to day things.
Mix that with the people that come here to misuse this site and it's really not a huge surprise.

You should see some of those recipe threads in 'Heavenly recipes'. Clearly we've been worrying about sex a bit too much and should be concentrating on the kind of recipes these people have been posting without a second thought to the damaging implications. SIX butter finger candy bars for butter finger pie!? I'm just praying they realise SEVEN is a much more wholesome and righteous amount of butter fingers.

Sex is probably being searched to see other people's opinions on sex, maybe they need help or are unsure about something in the topic. Not sure

I think we as christians shouldn't even think about it until we are married. because the bible says that we have to keep our body in honor and holiness. how can this ever honor jesus if we can't control our body and especially our minds because this is where it begins.

Okay, i never thought that sex is listed as the most searched topic here in cc until now. Anyway i don't find it unusual and i don't think it's a bad thing that Christians would search for sex. Human beings are sexual beings.

I read thread topics that relates/involves to sex because i want to be aware, grasp wisdom, and educate myself to that matter. And i don't think i should be ashamed of that.

I don't want to derail Ritter's thread too far, but an exhortation from Philippians came to mind with regards to sex.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

1 Corinthians 10:23-24
“I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive. No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.

I have tried to walk the line between purity and impurity in sex, unfortunately. I know it is possible to address sex purely and I also know that it is very difficult to maintain purity. I don't know the intent of many of the people searching the forums; I do know, however, that the more common a sin is presented, the more likely it is to be corrupted and become impure. I would urge all of you who may have questions about sex to truly ask God about why you seek answers to them. In my experience, there are a ton more impure reasons than pure ones. The more popular something like this is, the more chances that even something originally pure becomes impure. From what I've seen in the Bible and my own life, Satan doesn't have the power to create, but rather to take something God has created and elevate it and twist it.

If you know the magic formula to make us magically stop thinking about something that is naturally ingrained in almost every human being, and is pushed on us from every direction, then please share. Otherwise statements that make things that are not simple or easy, sound like they are simple or easy, resound more as spiritual platitudes rather than a well thought out remark.

I knew this would be a firestorm. Almost goes farther in proving my point.

I actually noticed this about a year or more ago, so no, you aren't the first.

I wonder if just clicking on the quick link for sex is considered searching for it? I've seen this before, but it made me laugh.

What are your thoughts?
I think we all know the answer to this question. ;)
