This is precisely why an alive, functioning church is of such value to people. It provides a safe community where love - real genuine affection abounds. Without the pressures of sex, long term relationships develop in a short amount of time. We can become like family very quickly. Also, by removing the sex element, it becomes more about what you can give people, rather than what can you take. People are not as suspicious of a man, believing him to be seeking to bed every woman(or man) he approaches in conversation.
Forgive me for digging up an old post, I just arrived. But Yorick, isn't it what this forum and others gives us too ? And many many kinds of human communities that do not involve religions ? [img]smile.gif[/img]
