CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I would say PERFECT then we would never have to worry about the physical stuff being a problem. I think money and *ahem*sex or sexual problems*ahem* are the biggest issues in marriage. It would be like having your bestfriend live at home with you all the time, I would love that. And a big thing too the relationship would not and could not be based on a false sense of feeling, that feeling you can get from sex, that what you got is the real deal, a real friendship and real love, the stuff that lasts forever. And there are other ways you can "get yours" if you really need to....*wink wink* after all she is YOUR wife now.

Wow. Big question. I have thought about this, and it always could end up being an issue for some couples.
I would most definitely still marry her. I have never met anyone like my wife, and I have never had with anyone else what I have with her. There is so much else we have in addition to our sexual life.

No! Sex is a vital part of marriage, especially among young people. To marry without it is to ignore Pauls major reason for 'permitting' marriage, which was to avoid burning from lust.

Desi, your argument sort of works if you already know she's incapable of *ahem* sexual intimacy. I'd have to ask my pastor about it, but I understand that Paul was referring to a specific situation when he said not to marry unless you couldn't control the lust. But I don't know enough to go into that argument.
So Desi, I put this question to you. If your wife suddently became permanently unable to participate in sex for some reason or other, how would you avoid burning from lust then?
I would agree that it would be a horrible and unfortunate situation, and probably quite unlikely. But I still put the question to you.

IMO, I don't think sex is the center of a relationship, if it is, then there's a problem. I love my fiance so much, he is my best friend in the entire world, and if he suddenly were unable to have sex, I wouldn't think for one moment of changing my mind to be with him.

If you love someone, how could you not marry. If thaat was the decieding factor, then isn't that just for the sake of lust????
Whats I think is worse is when communication breaks down, and after being married for awhile, sex stops being important to one or the other. It's no a matter of can or cannot.

Yes. I mean it would just take some getting use to, but eventually I would grow comfortable with it. If you love your spouse then this shouldn't be that hard of a question.
