Sex in the Bible and Sex in the City

Sex in the Bible is very simple and very clear. It can only be conducted by a man and a woman who are married. Any other types of sex is sin.

Sex in the City is complicated. It is usually considered as right if it is between consenting adults. Then complications set in when one or both of the consenting adults are married to other parties. And the consenting adults need not to be of different sex.

What happen if one of the adult is not an adult? Woe to the adult! He or she will be considered a paedophile and will be shamed and persecuted by a lot of righteous sinners, though they are adulterers and fornicators, but not paedophiles.

But in other cultures, such as Arabs, it is okay to be a paedophile. Mohammed married Aisha when she was six and consummate the marriage when she was nine.

Many years ago, sex outside marriage was considered a sin in European culture. Now it is okay for consent adults, but no paedophiles allowed, even if the child gives consent. But what of the future? Maybe what is sin today will be the norm again in future.

Fools mock at sin, But among the upright there is good will. (Proverbs 14:9 NASB)
