Sexual Ethics: A Christian's Conjecture

Sex. It's a great and mysterious gift from God. It's also one of the most talked about topics in the world. It pervades the thoughts of almost every person on this planet. In Christianity the discussion of sex seems to swing from one end of the spectrum to the other, rarely landing in the middle. Either sex is talked about constantly, often mixed with coarse or crude jokes, or the whole thing is put in the closet as taboo and only brought out for the infamous "birds and the bees" talks.

Conjecture: a conclusion deduced by surmise or guesswork... It's a good word for what goes on when we begin to speculate about the moral realm of sexual issues. These are topics that are referenced rarely, if at all, in the Bible, but for which there are a thousand different opinions. As I've maintained this site I've read more opinions on these subjects than I thought possible. So, that is all to say, hold your opinions passionately, but maintain civility when discussing and reading opinions different than your own.

However, I obviously believe delving into these topics has merit and can bring us closer to the actual truth. We may not always hit the bulls-eye of truth, but we can definitely come nearer to it. I decided to write this page because I have not been able to find a website that brings together the many different views and resources about sexual issues.

A Few Things this Site Hopes To Accomplish
  1. Get the subject out into the open. It's far too often shoved under the bed.
  2. Explore the different views that exist in Christian circles.
  3. Try and figure out how a book written over 2000 years ago applies to the sexual dilemmas of the 21st century

Ok, enough said, start browsing and enjoy the site!
