A quickie

I realize now that title may be a bit inappropriate in relation to the topic of this post. I finished reading Rob Bell's new book called "Sex God" and I loved it (with some parts I had a minor disagreement with, although it didn't diminish the heart behind what Rob was trying to communicate), so I googled the title to read reviews of what other people thought, to see how it was being received. And the website I am linking to came up like no. 5 on the list. It's called sex in Christ dot com and it claims that God gave us anal and oral sex to kind of appease those of us who aren't married until we make the big plunge. Obviously you don't neeed to hear any of my commentary, I just wanted to post it because it cracked me up and also saddened me a little too. I just hope no one read this and put its teachings into practice.

There's also sections on the site that allow for threesomes within Christian marriage (as long as its two women and one man, not vice versa, because apparently the Bible only condemns male homosexuality) as well as arguing for how Christian pornography is possible, as long as it follows a list of Biblical guidelines. It's an interesting site, and a great example of complete legalism, of only doing what the Scripture clearly outlines and missing the entire heart we are to have in doing the rules.

Well I just looked at the guy like he was crazy. I didn't say anything. I eventually gave a very embarassed smirk and walked away.
