| Nov 20, 2019 at 17:51 | comment | added | Flimzy | @jongricafort: There are so many assumptions and opinions in that statement, I don't even know how to respond. | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 8:01 | comment | added | jong ricafort | @Flimzy the only question is, if you know that biblical scholars now understand Garden of Eden as the Temple of God, the First Sanctuary of God where Adam & Eve worship and commune with God. Can they do a consensual sexual act in a sacred place of the paradise? If they did then they desecrated and defiled the garden.right? | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 6:48 | comment | added | Flimzy | My comment is 5 years old, and it was apparently a sarcastic one, but I think my point was: Lust is the illicit desire for sex,so if sex is illicit, then wanting it is lust, not that all sex is necessarily borne of lust, only that illicit sex is. But I suppose one could make the argument that a couple could undertake (consensual), illicit sex, without wanting it, although that seems far-fetched. | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 3:07 | comment | added | Bit Chaser | Does ccc398 really teach that pre-fall humans needed to be "divinized"? Does it in fact teach that anyone other than Mary's parents should be or were divinized? | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 2:51 | comment | added | jong ricafort | @disciple Yes, CCC398 teaches that Adam & Eve must be "divinized" first meaning must reach Theosis in Eastern Orthodox teachings before they can procreate, so that "lust" will be absent, just like St.Joachim and St.Anne did, that's why they produced an "immaculate body" from the "uncorrupted seed". | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 2:27 | comment | added | Bit Chaser | @jongricafort According to Catholicism, "lust" has been an issue since the fall. They explicitly say Adam and Eve "could have" had sex without lust. | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 1:31 | comment | added | jong ricafort | @Flimzy Catechism of the Catholic Church goes along that line too, it was "mark by lust and domination" (CCC400). Could it really be a sexual act? Let's wait for the answer as my previous answer was unfairly deleted by Peter Turner. | |

| Oct 20, 2013 at 21:53 | comment | added | Flimzy | If sex is a sin, then the first sin, would have been lust... not sex... :P | |
| Oct 18, 2013 at 17:19 | comment | added | Ignatius Theophorus | @Narnian You know, I don't have a reference either, but I've heard not only this, but that oral sex, specifically, was the first sin. That was a decade ago on a web forum though. | |

| Oct 17, 2013 at 22:30 | comment | added | user3961 | @Flimzy Well done. This is now a question that is on-topic and interesting. Last I checked, there are actually three living remaining Shakers and their demise is more due to the fact that the state now prohibits religious groups from adopting children. | |
| Oct 17, 2013 at 15:45 | comment | added | Flimzy | I have edited the question to make it more on-topic for this site. I think it's a good question; there are a minority of Christian groups that hold (or held) this view. I believe the Shakers may have fallen into this category (but they don't exist any more, since they forbade sex). | |

| Oct 17, 2013 at 11:37 | comment | added | Narnian | Do you have any references for this teaching? In the creation account, God specifically commands Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. There really is only one way to do that, and that is to have intercourse. So, intercourse was not only God's idea, but God's plan and God's intent for marriage. So, no, that idea is completely unbiblical. | |
| Oct 17, 2013 at 10:23 | comment | added | Mawia | The Bible never say that. I'm curious which Christian group interpret it in such manner. | |
