There are other places in the Bible where men are commanded to love their
wives. Marriage shouldn't be just about sex. In attempting to give
create a brief email I think I gave that impression. My apologies.
You're self contradictory here. You say that marriage is the only
acceptable outlet for sex. Then you claim marriage isn't (just) about sex.
Then you say the religion isn't sexuall repressed. At least one of these is
not true.

Marriage basically is about a promise not to abandon someone. I think
most people want a promise like that. Whether sex without marriage works
pretty well is a big question. I doubt it. I wonder if all the
out-of-wedlock children would agree with you that it works pretty well.
You think they'd prefer to not be born instead? Funny, thats the usual
argument Christians use to be anti-abortion, its amusing to see one of them
try to use it in the opposite sense.
