I was being facetious
I've been to a lot of churches where political agendas and wierd stuff was the norm. NOT my idea of spirituality!

I can just see it now...men from that church going home and saying " give it up, woman! The good reverand told us it's God's will." LMAO.

Oh, cool! And the church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster wants you to have pasta today. It IS Wednesday, and if I recall my television advertising, that makes it Prince Spaghetti day.

Just leave the politics and the weird stuff out of it.
Weird, I had the opposite reaction. I think it's great that a church is trying to get couples more intimate and involved with one another, recognizing that sex is a great gift. Many churches are trying to be more current and relevant to people's lives. I didn't see anything political or weird about it.

I guess if you like flashy, show off, bullcrap.

I'll take my pastors, discussing the bible, and taking vows of poverty.

How about discussing the Bible's view of sex?

1 Corinthians 7:3-5: "3 Let the husband render to [his] wife her due; but let the wife also do likewise to [her] husband. 4 The wife does not exercise authority over her own body, but her husband does; likewise, also, the husband does not exercise authority over his own body, but his wife does. 5 Do not be depriving each other [of it], except by mutual consent for an appointed time, that you may devote time to prayer and may come together again, that Satan may not keep tempting you for your lack of self-regulation."

Sex sucks. Church sucks. There is literally not a spot on this country where you don't have to have this crap brainwashed into your skull. I'm going to become a pastor and bombard my congregation with the History of Spiderman...

OK, I never thought I'd say this to you, but you really need to have some sex.
