So far not a single verse from anybody saying anything about what Heaven is supposed to be like. Don't think there are any Biblical references on the subject.

If no Biblical rebutal----then I will continue to believe mucho sex going on in Heaven. Orgasms galore.

I don't know where Fundies get these very detailed ideas about things that are not described in any way in the Bible. Very vivid imaginations I guess.

And of course they are also probably following a personal disposition. I guess if you think sex is nasty personally on Earth, then no way would you want it in your own personally contrived Heaven.

To each his own. I plan to have a whole bunch of sex in Heaven.

This thread reminds me of an old country song that went something like this:

Will they have smokin' and drinkin' in heaven?
Oh Lord, if they don't
who the hell'd want to go?!

Note that not all Christians believe that marriage is not eternal; Latter-Day Saints believe that marriage can be eternal.

Why would an all-loving God ORDER us to do something so disgusting, and make it feel good even though it's evil and sinful and disgusting? Must be another test!

Those fundamentalist tendencies are showing. "Oh, keep that filthy habit away from me...it's sooooo dirty."

As an atheist, I'm only looking forward to another forty or fifty years of sex. Is that less disgusting, since my expectation of sex is finite; or more disgusting, since I don't accept that I'll be punished forever and ever for enjoying the nerve endings and hormones that god provided?

It certainly is. To want MORE than an eternity of it is downright selfish. I'll settle for a standard eternity of sex. Thank You.

At least give me beaucoup verses in the Bible to support that notion. (And don't read into verses what you want to.)

Until you do, I am going to assume there is a virtual orgy going on in Heaven.

PS-- I suppose you do realize that supposedly Muslims and Christians and Jews all believe in the same God. -----just some minor differences here and there ---OK--major differences.
Mat 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.



Jews and Christians believe in the same God, Muslims don't. Allah is a pagan moon God ( hence the crescent moon symbol on mosque flags, and many Arab country flags).

Sex feels good and is acceptable even to high christian standards when practised in moderation. I don't think we need to argue on this one.
Unless sex suddenly starts feeling bad if you've never fapped in your life and waited until your honeymoon, I don't see why it would be forbidden in heaven. [/B]
Yes, God created sex primarily for procreation, and for bonding between two married people. Since the Bible says, there is no marriage - how can there be sex? God forbids sex outside of marriage. No marriage = no sex in Heaven.

There is nothing wrong with sex within the marriage bond. God did create it. However, sex for all eternity - in a place with no marriage - is lust, which is a sin - wanting sex all the time is sinful.
