Is it 'okay' to seek a sex partner if spouse is forever severely disabled/incapable

[anachronistic]

Meh I wouldn't expect the girl to keep her vagina all sewed up if she had to take care of me for the rest of my life.

But just looking at marriage from the religious perspective, even though that is not my own, it is very wrong to have a sex partner, is it not? That has been my argument, and people are still like "nopes teh bible dont say dat1!!!1"

Why is religion changing like that? Why do we have to modernize it? Because our views are changing. Looking at adultery alone, how many Catholics, Christians, Jews, and Islams are still faithful? I don't think many are, when young boys are looking at porn, teenagers are having sex, and all that. It's all overlooked because views have changed, and religion is 'modernized'. Things are acceptable these days... all you have to do is repent... a difference of years is the difference between that and being stoned to death, excommunicated, or casted out of society.

Because of that, church and state should be separated. Since everybody's views are different, I think something like marriage should be governed a little more loosely. In fact, I think it needs to take a different name. I think marriage should coexist with it, for religious people who choose to be more faithful to their religion. Before people are legally allowed to seek sex partners, I think polygamous marriages and homosexual marriages should be legal.

Anyone that disagrees with that is a moron.

Hasn't religion always been changing in some form?

Well ultimately, it is not religion that has changed, but people.

However, I cannot picture this below as a loving emotional bond...(depends on what you mean by emotional experience I suppose)

Sex has to be different in order to keep it fresh, but it doesn't change the fact that it's still an emotional bond. It's more evident when the sex is over and we're just laying there after saying that we love each other.

And I couldn't do that with another girl. The dirty talking is something I was just never into before her.

Ah, understandable. Such a harsh world we live in. I hope we never have to deal with making these types of decisions.

Sometimes, though, we do end of having an emotional bond with the 'other' person and that is what drive us to having this other companion. Sounds so horrible though. Argh.

Such a harsh world we live in.

We live in a fine, fine world

You're right. I had a pessimistic outlook for a second. You brought me back. Thanks

If I took on another partner while my gf was a vegetable, I'd feel like I abandoned her. I just can't picture myself doing that.

No problem. Girls like you are what make this world so fine

This thread reminded me of something...

In high school, the cafeteria did a survey to find out what the kids favorite foods were. Under the "favorite vegetable" category my friend put "Terry Schiavo"

Cain, you have such a small view of the world. Sex is just a part of a good partnership. Its not even the most important part, IMO.

The fact that you place so much emphasis on it makes you seem very juvenile to me. The way you go on about the subject, I doubt very much you'd be able to do without it if your wife couldn't have it anymore. I bet you'd divorce her just so that you could *morally* have sex with another person. That's warped thinking, IMO.

so what you're saying now, is it's wrong to look for sex if your significant other is incapable. right?

[anachronistic]

*tosses brick in the air and hits self in the head*

clearly my point was very little contribution to the thread.

hopefully by the time i settle down with someone, i won't have to worry about that because they can just clone me a new wife and burn the other one ahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahhahahaa

Should I just not post in any thread more than once?
