- What are you referring to? Vasectomy? Masturbation? Contraception?
-
- I believe you would be wrong in thinking that "most other churches" have
- condemned all these things as sinful. In fact, in the fundamentalist
- philosophy I grew up with, DirtyIkkySweatySexForNoOtherReasonThanOrgasm

- Relations" and "Bringing the Christian Husband and Wife Closer" or
- somesuch, but I know couples who claim to have used them.
