This week: Isn't Marriage about Love, not Gender?
I was at a chastity talk a few weeks back and the speaker said that sex is sacred. I believe that – I really do. My question is that if love makes sex more than just a physical act…if love makes sex sacred, how come the Church says it’s only for a man and woman? The answer!
