Fleeting Thought of the Night


In the next room, the television is watching my partner as she snoozes on the futon. And like every late night in Tallahassee, there is an ad for one of the plethora of erectile dysfunction drugs on the market. Funny that as I heard the pitch for the product, in which a man should only take it if he is fit for sexual activity, I came across THIS ARTICLE in The Times about the Church's obsession with what adults are doing in their bedrooms... and with whom they are doing it. Granted, if the activity is abusive or violent in any way, that's reason for some concern. But if it's sex between consenting adults... the Church should get over it.

Or better yet... not get into it.

Given how often these erectile dysfunction ads play in a night on TV here, is it any wonder that our culture and our Church are constantly thinking about sex?

I couldn't agree with you more. Stay out of our bedrooms, and I wonder why they have those ads about erectile dysfunction. Poor older guys, it must make them feel awful.
