And according to Israel's Foreign Ministry, India is the most pro-Israel nation in the world.

"Desires of the Flesh" is a Christian concept in their bible.

I thought this was a Jewish subforum. Why is every thread descending into discussing Christian ideologies?

Under Orthodox Judaism both sexes are virgins and both are taught since puberty that mental desires before marriage is bad and are taught how to stop it. After marriage is the separation of sexes thing.
