I don't know if I could do it. I mean EVERY DAY???? Would it make it more boring or more exciting knowing that you'll be having sex? I know I'd give it a shot. Gonna talk to the hubby. :)


Pastor issues sex challenge (http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/myfox/pages/Home/Detail;jsessionid=8BF8862B8DDB114CFB8C769376B0FD75 ?contentId=5781468&version=1&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=TSTY&pageId=1.1.1&sflg=1)

TAMPA - A pastor has a new challenge for his parishioners. It involves sex - a subject that may be taboo in many congregations.

The Relevant Church in Tampa's Ybor City has issued a 30-day sex challenge.

"It's going to be tempting and awkward at the same time for sure," said parishioner Brent Cayson.

Single men and women can't have sex for 30 days, and married couples are urged to have it every day.

"If you look at studies, studies say in 30 days you can develop a habit," said Pastor Paul Wirth.

It definitely caught wives in the church by surprise.

"Our married people are far more fearful than our single people," said Wirth.

"Sex is about more than intercourse and that's what we're trying to tell people," said church member Jarret Haas.

Wirth has found biblical references that he says suggest Jesus disapproved of pre-marital sex and promoted sex in marriage. So, he believes people connect to God through life-long commitment.

That's why he tells his single followers to abstain, and his married followers to indulge.

Wirth is a former Baptist. He founded his non-denominational ministry three years ago. And he markets his church by tackling unusual or controversial topics.

umm orleander, im wondering if you belive this would work?

Increasing the married peoples sex life, well so what

As for abstaining for 30 days "curing" pre marital sex its a load of crap. Look at people in the millarty, do they "give up" sex after they have been deployed or do they fuck like rabits the second they walk through the door?

Nope, not according to the church. Its why I said 'THIS challenge'. You are not married so no sex for 30 days. Could you do it or would you fail?

talking about sex is good, it shouldnt be something that has to be hiden. Preaching abstance is stupid because we are hard wired to have sex

Shorty i have herd that the alter in a catholic church or the pews in an Anglican one are GREAT places to have sex:p

The confessional is too if you want some privacy:p

Course you cant really beat a blow job in the back while mass is on:D

I think a couple going without sex for 30 days is a good thing. Can you imagine day 31? Its gonna be HOT! (fast, but hot). You have to find other ways to be affectionate and communicate.

And having sex in a church is HORRIBLE. :mad: How disrespectful could a person be? It would be like coming home and finding strangers having sex on my bed.

CutsieMarie89
02-15-08, 04:46 PM
God would probably be pleased if you had sex in "his house" (as long as your married) since he and his son (who is also him) encourage it so much, but do you have to be married in spirit or does a legal marriage count too?

Orleander
02-15-08, 04:49 PM
Pretty sure its legally married.

Can't wait til gay people can be married everywhere. They would be horrified to think of them as having sex everyday (which they probably think they do anyways, they are so fixated on it)

A minisiter at my school said that you must be married before the Lord in order to be considered married in the eyes of the Lord. But I guess this is a pretty progressive church. And thats good cause I don't want to get married in a church, if I get married.

I am unmarried. If "success" means "not having sex for 30 days" (which, over the course of most of my adult life, I would have categorized as "failure"), then of course I could do it if I wanted to.

I am not sure why I would want to, and absolutely know that "success" would not make abstinence a habit, though.

If I were married, the notion that "we need to have sex because the pastor told us to" would creep me out to no end.

02-15-08, 05:23 PM
Its not an order, its a challenge. If you don't want to take part in it, you don't have to.

Yes, on purpose. In a sense in was very easy though. Not because there wasn't any pressure to conform; there was plenty. Not because I haven't been very loney, because I have. And certainly not due to a lack of opportunity, because it's all around. It's because of my state of mind and heart. I do have to add though, there was one extemely drunken and very unfortunate incendent that lasted for several minutes one night that i only remember because I was very traumatized by it, and I seem to have had an out of body experience during, with which to escape it. But other than that there has been none whatsoever. And I very rarely masturbate too. :shrug:

The last time I got lucky was the end of April, 1989. I've given up all hope.

The first few years are the hardest. Which makes sense, I was in my twenties then (awash in testosterone).

I think that was one of the reasons I used to ride my bicycle so much. To be too tired to worry about being sexually frustrated.

02-16-08, 08:52 PM
Done them both and no it does not work like that.

Having sex everyday for 30 days is easy in a new relationship. Not having sex for 30 days is also easy if you ignore phone sex and masturbation. But as Asguard says, when you do meet its like rabbits.

Orleander
02-16-08, 08:54 PM
so wouldn't it make sex better for the unmarried couples?

Any sex aggravates the back injury. Sitting down hurts it.
Also, we both have roommates, so we can't have sex whenever.

Roman have you tried acupuncher or a pysio?

Both of those preffessions tend to have better results than surgical intervention for back injuries. Acupuncher can relive the pain and a good pysio can strengthen the back mussles which will pull your spine into its proper alinment

I only do two things for injuries of any sort:
push-ups and anti-inflammatories.

Asguard
02-17-08, 09:42 PM
I highly suggest you look at those two. They are non surgical and non medical and highly effective. Paliaties is another option which may help, alot of physios do this as well (at least here they do)
