Sex has been viewed by mankind in various lights throughout the course of history. From the free range love of the sixties, to the hush hush attitude of the Elizabethans, these views have gone to the extreme on both sides. Even today parents have a difficult time broaching the subject with their children. Unbeknownst to many, the Bible is far from silent on this subject. The truth is that virtually every aspect of sex is talked about in the Bible. Not only are the reproductive organs of both male and female mentioned by name, but their very functions (sexual, digestive, and nourishment in the case of the female breasts) are discussed frequently within the pages of the Bible. Of interest is the fact that the Bible is written in such a way that every verse dealing with this topic can be read in any crowd without causing any to become uncomfortable. Following are a few of these aforementioned verses. (This post is not yet completed. It will be updated on a regular basis until it is finished.)
