This idea has been floating around in my mind since a discussion some time ago in [livejournal.com profile] yahvah's journal.

For a time I actually wrote an online column about the subject of sacred sex. The idea that sex is sacred, and sacredness often has a sexual undercurrent, is natural to me.

The authors of Why God Won't Go Away believe that the mystical parts of the brain evolved hand-in-hand with the parts of the brain that make sex enjoyable.

Your second point is a good one, too. I'll have to see if there is some way to demonstrate why sex might have important spiritual overtones (and vice-versa) whereas something else just as common, like sleeping, might not. That will require some thought
