    Worship:

    >Extravagant respect or admiration for or devotion to an object, person of esteem.

    >A feeling of profound love and admiration.

      ANYTHING can be used as a weapon, just as anything can be used as a blessing or tool. Just as rape is a weapon and tragedy, so then loving intimate relations can become a blessing to the couple, and therefore, consecrated for their blessing and good. Hence, it can, in these limited circumstances [perhaps] be considered a personal form of worship.

    It's a sacred relationship between a man and a woman who have promised to each other before God.

        It sure seems like alot of fun to be worship. Excuse me while I slap myself. Here I go, I have heard God referenced a couple of times so I guess yes it is.

    Wait, is this going to turn into a;

    Sex = worship.

    Sex with someone = You're worshiping that person.

    Only God should be worshiped!

    Having sex with someone is blasphemy, ergo having sex is WRONG!

    Type deal?

    I would not call it an act of worship so much as a picture of worship, to demonstrate how true worship must be.  Along the same line of thinking, I believe that the church will only grow when believers truly worship God.  For just as reproduction is the product of sex... conversion the result of worship.

      Well are you aware that the word used for "One" in the statement "Our God is One"

      Is the same exact word for "the 2 shall become One flesh" ???

      In Hebrew it is called ECHAD

          Jewelsposted 14 years agoin reply to this

          In all seriousness, on a subject that could go anywhere lol, to really and truly be good at sex the woman needs to learn how to love through her skin and totally indulge in the act.  In doing so, the man is putty in her hands, which can happen anyway!  But the experience is immensely more internal.   There are no thoughts about how to please, you just know how without thinking.

          So, big key - don't adore him, adore yourself and in the process he gets the best.  And the experience is out of this world, literally.

            I have to agree with you, Jewels. Making love, as opposed to sex, is one of the most indulgent and incredible pleasures we can have, when the focus is love--of self and partner. Very nice description.

    To Worship sex is as banal as to worship food. Both are  natural necesities. Very agreeable and necesary. that's all. People that worship sex, are childish.

    Varies as an idiosyncrasy. For some people, sex is the expression of their highest standards and their values; a culmination of respect and desire for what they know reflects the best within themselves.
