Follow the Bible,

not the Kinsey report

It is the 50th anniversary of Alfred Kinsey's report, "Sexuality and the Human Male," and the introduction of the "sexual revolution."

The report of this zoologist turned sexologist has given us 50 years of perverted sexual propaganda promoting the idea that society should not stifle any sexual activity. Thanks to this philosophy many things have dramatically increased.

We have a higher number of teen pregnancies, people who are infected with a sexually transmitted disease, children who have been molested, women who have been raped, pornography that has been produced, abortions that have been performed, and homosexuality that is out of the closet and in your face.

"Free sex" has given us costly moral and medical bills. Now we have a President who seems to be a product and a representative of this philosophy.

Who would have ever thought that an official testimony would detail the affair of a president with a young intern that would read like a script from some kind of pornographic production? I do not take pleasure in pointing this out; I believe it is an indictment on the moral state of our society.

It is time for us to return to the Biblical understanding of human sexuality. Sex was created by God to be enjoyed by a husband and a wife within the confines of the marriage relationship. A loving, monogamous, heterosexual marriage relationship is guilt-free and safe.

The Bible not only allows this but encourages it. First Corinthians 7:3 says "Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband." And Hebrews 13:4 states "Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge."

Society (from presidents to paupers) would be better off if we would follow God's plan rather than Kinsey's perversion.
