Catholic group urges "Prayer before Sex"
This Catholic group says couples should pray before having sex. I realize there will probably be some callow comments in this thread, but so be it I guess.

I usually pray that there are no injuries or damage to property.

What was the point of yours?
________________________ That said... My take is that it would make sex awkward for those who are religious. I'm not, but if you are religious enough to pray before sex, I don't think it's needed. It's weird that this is new, right? Why all of sudden the praying before sex? or is this not new? What's next to pray before doing? |

I have a better idea: Theists should think before they go to church.

When I was in college, all the men I knew were praying for sex

I don't know about that. It's all in how you say it.
"Cover your poverty, baby. Yeah, just like that in the richness... You are soooo richness right now." "That's it. Give me your mercy. yeah, shake your mercy maker." "Oh Baby, I'm about to glory soo hard, yeah! Glory to you. to you!!!! FOR EVER AND EVERRRRRRR!!!!" |

Great advice. I'll tell my gay posse Catholics want them to pray before they have sex.

It seems the prayer is only being recommended for married people. Which makes sense, as those are the only people who should be having sex. [/sarcasm]

As an atheist married to a Catholic, I prefer to have my partner call on the Lord during sex.

I think the Catholic church has been hanging on to this one for awhile...hence it was only altar-boys that the priests engaged with.

If you were specific enough in asking forgiveness for what you were about to do, in roughly chronological order perhaps, it could be kind of sexy.
