The act of sex is equivalent to spitting the eye of fate.
It is life, defying its death sentence. It is celebration in the face of eventual loss and sorrow. It is closeness and intimacy in spite of the fear and aloofness bred into us by callousness.
This is why sex is sacred, and why it is such an important battlefield with the archons. The archons must control sex to retain their control; this is how they play ape politics with us. Archontic control of sex is the equivalent of "collaring" the entire society.

I don't think sex in any way spits in the face of fate
to embrace sex
or procreation
is to embrace death
to create life
is to create the certainty of death
I agree that celebration can occur
in the face of ultimate destruction
I also agree
that control of something like sex
can quickly be perverted for many social control reasons
but
those saying
that there will be no line
which shall not be crossed
are living in a fantasy world
nearly as unreal as the everlasting hills
the river is life
but
at some point
the river is death

Re: hagiasophiadonkey
I think this is the message of Christianity -- that Jesus defied fate, defied the archontic order, and lost his life for it -- but was given that life back, because the Father so approved of what Jesus had done.
To enjoy sex, in a free and sacred way, is to defy the archontic order that would demand we submit to fate. As I pointed out above, it is neurologically related to mystical experience. Mystical experience is that which connects us to the divine presence; and I believe the divine presence wants us to transcend fate.

would to be
to no longer live
so that nothing may be taken by death
to create light
makes possible the darkness
I don't know
with what basis within the religion of christianity
you base some of your thoughts
this isn't meant as an insult
simply a statement of interpretation
I see your point
but
I simply have a hard time seeing
how scripture
at all supports what you say
jesus may have swept away
the more unnecessary laws
of diet
and cleanliness
but
it seems quite clear
that he established a very clear moral order
that at times
you would almost appear to be at odds with
we like to fluff religion up
and say how god is love
I think we forget
the god many of us worship
is the god who annihilated sodom and gomorrah
the christian, jewish, muslim god
is a god who accepts us
but not always on our terms
