The couple is from Germany?! I don't understand it. They have quite a good education system so at least they should've had some biology lessons. I still don't believe it...how in heaven could they nullify the primal urge to reproduce?

What a load of BS. Doesn't a fertility test for a male involve jacking off into a cup? How the hell would he have known how to do that if he didn't know about sex? There's no way this is possible.

Does this mean they get to watch those Miracle of Life videos?!

I heard this on the radio, too, so there are different sources, which means the Sun at least didn't make it up.

Also, I would assume a fertility test would begin with a few questions before you get to the physical part.

Anyone need a proof Christianity is dying out?

Probably Bavarians (if you don't understand that, think Texans). Only there have we got enough fundamentalists to prevent education in school. In the rest of the federation nobody gives a f#ck about religion, so you can expect sexual education to take place. In fact they must have skipped school or have really aggressive parents who gave them excuses for skipping biology lessons (I'm not sure whether that really was biology or whether there were dedicated lessons for sexual education, been a while since then). Either way, serves them right. Stupidity shouldn't be allowed to procreate.

Who wants to bet that after the discovery of sex the couple has been doing nothing else?

"Anyone need a proof Christianity is dying out?"

Yeah because of two really dumb people a whole religion is dying out. That makes tons of sense.

What I don't get is how come their parents never said anything. Even if you were really sheltered from sex (and that would be pretty hard particularly in North America) surely your parents would tell you after you got married. Only pre-marital sex is a sin in Christian religions. Sex after marriage is perfectly moral and is encouraged or at least it is with Catholics. I'm not 100% sure what the different Protestant religions think about sex within marriage.

I imagine though that the couple has been naked with each other and touched each other's private parts. That in itself would probably satisfy any urges. They probably just don't know the mechanics of intercourse.

"Who wants to bet that after the discovery of sex the couple has been doing nothing else?"

It's probably really good for their marriage. They've had all this time to build a relationship and really get to know each other beforehand. Now sex can add an extra spark to their relationship.

I got to agree with KDR_11k, probably they are from a region with a very conservative way of life so probably they missed on purpose the Human Biology Chapter.

Who'll bet they got completely grossed out by each other.

Hm, why doesn't christianity encourage nudity? After all, Adam and Eve only realized they were naked because of Satan's doing, right? So shouldn't we work against that?

Ian Sane · « **Reply #16 on:** May 20, 2004, 12:00:18 PM »

"Hm, why doesn't christianity encourage nudity?"

Same reason society in general doesn't: because most people aren't very attractive.

I think the real reason is that it would be kind of hard to resist having premarital sex if you were surrounded by naked people all the time. It's a temptation issue I figure.

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #17 on:** May 20, 2004, 12:06:21 PM »

Temptation is only fueled by restricting something. The more you're told not to do something the more interested you are in doing it- it's human nature.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #18 on:** May 20, 2004, 12:31:04 PM »

"Temptation is only fueled by restricting something."

True but in theory everything that is restricted has a good reason for being restricted. For example murder is restricted for obvious reasons and violence is restricted as well because it can lead to murder. If Christian religions restrict pre-marital sex obviously a strong temptation like casual nudity should be restricted as well. In the Catholic Faith deliberately putting oneself in a situation that strongly tempts one to sin is considered a sin itself. Thus casual nudity would be a sin.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #19 on:** May 20, 2004, 12:41:29 PM »

Yeah, I get what Ian's saying: the percentage of blind people would skyrocket due to casual nudity.

Nudity.

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #20 on:** May 20, 2004, 12:41:30 PM »

Things like murder aren't natural, though- sex is, especially premarital (or just plain nonmarital) sex. Monogamy and marriage are human inventions and do not come naturally, therefor restricting something like sex only makes it more tempting. The social taboo on murder is not the thing keeping most people froming doing it, while the social taboo on premarital sex is what's keeping most people from doing it, or so I'd guess.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #21 on:** May 20, 2004, 01:04:14 PM »

"Monogamy and marriage are human inventions and do not come naturally"

I'll agree that marriage is a human invention and really just a formal way of establishing a monogamous relationship. However monogamy itself IS natural. Several species of animals practice it in some form or fashion. Several types of birds for example establish life-long mating relationships. And many other species at the very least have family units. Therefore it is perfectly natural for human beings to establish life-long mating partners. Human children need to be taken care of for several years and judging by the physical differences of the human male and female I think both parents are vital to the parenting role.

The only difference is that humans don't have instinct the same way other animals do so we have the ability to make choices and think so thus different people are going to choose a different sexual lifestyle and some people don't even want to procreate. If you want to have kids though the odds are pretty good the lifestyle you choose will incorporate a monogamous relationship to some extent. Not just because it's what we've been "conditioned" to do but because it actually works really well.

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #22 on:** May 20, 2004, 01:46:20 PM »

Wow, several types of birds are monogamous. We as humans are programmed to pass on our genes to as many mates as possible- sticking with one mate is a direct violation of our natural instincts. Why do you think men cheat in relationships far more often than women? Sex is natural- in fact, it's the means by which we attain all we're really here to do, which is reproduce. And when you restrict something that comes naturally it only makes you want to do it anymore- it's human nature. The only difference between humans and the rest of the animal kingdom in this respect is we're conscious of our actions and can therefor choose to follow through with our instincts, as hard that may be. I could say a lot more about monogamy, but then we'd get into a religious debate, so I'll refrain from it.

"We as humans are programmed to pass on our genes to as many mates as possible- sticking with one mate is a direct violation of our natural instincts."

Why do you think that? I've come to exact opposite conclusion though that it is mostly due to the fact that I personally do not have the urge to reproduce with multiple partners and I've noticed that situations where a male hops from female to female and has multiple children with different mothers usually doesn't work out very well. The monogamous relationship
has appeared to be more successful. So perhaps it isn't necessarily natural but it's something that humans have adapted because it's a good idea.

And here's a doozy for you. If monogamy is a human creation does that mean that love is as well?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #24 on:** May 20, 2004, 03:08:25 PM »

"Wow, several types of birds are monogamous."

It's not just birds, but many mammals as well...

"We as humans are programmed to pass on our genes to as many mates as possible- sticking with one mate is a direct violation of our natural instincts."

First of all, humans lack instinct...Maybe if you replaced "instinct" with "hormones" it'd work out...Second, if this were the case, then why do such species as foxes, for example, mate for life?

And the main reason for spouses cheating on each other is boredom of each other, which as far as science knows, is a feeling only humans get...
