   Most of the religions say that sex is a sin. If that is true, should we think that the population of our world is the fruit of this sin committed by people?

      Actually, not all religions look at it this way.  In Judaism, for example, sex is a seen as natural and as a mitzvah (good deed).  Of course, there are official restrictions (i.e., it's supposed to be done only in marriage and at certain times), but in general the view of sex is much more positive than in other religions.
      
      I think the idea of sin is a way for religion to control people. If people are all born sinners, then they have to work really hard to get salvation. Too bad, I think if it was assumed that people were good, more of them would be.

   It's not sex itself that is the sin, it's the unauthroized, unapproved version of it that is considered sinful by most churches.  You know, sex for pleasure, sex for sale, sex before marriage, sex outside marriage, sex with same-sex partners, sex with yourself, any kind of sex that doesn't happen within a marriage to produce children.  And actually, I think it's the Shakers who disapproved even of that.

      Ditto what you said, Disturbia. This is how I understand the subject of sex and whether or not it is a sin.

   Sex is a sin for only the gullible who believe in religion's dogma. Otherwise, NO!

      How else were we supposed to multiply? Did God mean we were supposed to sit around all day and do math problems? Jesus said " Don't say something is bad if it has been OK'd by the head office!" Paraphrasing of course.

      Well I supose doing math is one way to multiply, but having sex while eating cake sounds like much more fun and probably produces a better product.

         I might consider converting to Wicca in order to worship the vagina. But over multipling more babies for an over populated world is almost a sin
