Me likes me privacy when taking a roll in the hay. Like I wrote earlier, do you really dig all those deities staring down at you? What naughtyass aspect of this is so exciting besides being drug into the Rectory and spanked with some unmentionable thing if you get caught?
Where's LEB on this one?
EDIT: Okay, no doubt about it; anywhere in the wilderness is quite lovely.

You must mean Camp Wawona?
Did you have a bad experience there?

I wonder if that's where the WOS boys learned that secret handshake? I know it's where the camper's grin came from.

Well, a couple years back I climbed a 17th century Catholic church with my then girlfriend....
But wasn't the question about what goes on *inside* the church?

not all churches are garishly decorated. plus, jesus and those kids didn't look like that anyways, so who cares?

First of all, at risk of sounding self-righteous, I don't believe in having "sex." I believe in love and being with one I love. Some might call it making love. As for church, well the closest thing I came to anything like that was in the early 1970s in Yosemite at the little chapel near Sentinel Meadow. I and a girl friend went there one late dark night to find the piano, so I could serenade her. We then lay on the altar, the only flat and spacious place, cuddling and kissing. We didn't feel the condemnations of God. So much of mainstream Christianity seems so very wayward and verging on the antithesis of Christ that their buildings hardly inspire a sense of the sacred, although there are notable exceptions, but rather what is sacred is what happens among the pure in heart, no matter what religion, who might go to a man-made structure with their honest spirits (mingling of course with the majority of dishonest and impure spirits). I think God appreciates love (sex is meaningless without it, or rather in love people never have "sex"), but that kind of philosophy aside, what could be the purpose of such a question but to troll for a series of banal remarks offered by a host of those who, for the most part, seem uninclined spiritually?

i don't know, it was on a myspace survey and it was such a funny / random / odd question i thought it would be funny to post here... didn't really think it thru... just being spontaneous... geez.
i don't really feel like i could judge terribly accurately whether or not folks are spiritually inclined simply by some posts on a message board... well, maybe a little, but not that much.

I don't see why not. As long as you're not a catholic priest, it's unlikely you're committing any crimes :\

i believe the joke is :
a woman asked her priest if it was ok to have sex on sunday before church.
the priest thought for a moment and replied 'I suppose it's all right, as long as you don't block the isle.'
personally - this is *all* church to me...even the parts that are ugly, still all a miracle any of this bothered to be here and now for us, so if i ever do have sex again it will be in church, yes, just like every other time before it...
ymmv...
