I think if we spent more time on ensuring everyone operated with respect for others, be honest and benevolent... that would be all? Sex, love, unions is what happens...and not the starting point... trying to analyse it in isolation is about getting into a spin - and allowing 'quacks' to reason.

In my view, one of the biggest tragedies of human kind has been the entry of religious or other institutions (when they operate as powerful forces and not benevolent) between what should be the direct relationship between one person and what he or she beleives in. In fact they do so much in the name of the survival and promotion of their kind, that it almost seems that there is no God for them in the end?
