Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.~Aren’t we supposed to be like Jesus?
~Isn’t the Apostle Paul a good enough example to follow?
~Sex is granted in the New Testament by way of concession to avoid sinful lust rather than by way of endorsement.
~If you couldn’t birth disciples, you’d feel more need to go make them yourselves.
~What is more needful, the evangelizing and pastoring of the already born of the birthing of more needy?
~This would put you in a better position to adopt an already existing unwanted child.
~No sex, no sexual deviance.
~No sex, no defilement.
~No sex, no objectification in sex.
~No sex, no unwanted children.
~No sex, no sexually transmitted diseases.
~No sex, no emotional devastation from being left after giving yourself sexually.
~When you’re not squandering your energies in sexual expression, you can channel those impulses into work and creativity.
~You can have pure and undistracted relationships.
~How can you ever know who you really are as a single individual if you don’t give up your sexual needs for another person?
~Mahatma Gandhi, Isaac Newton, Immanuel Kant, and Mother Theresa. Apparently celibacy has some benefits to impacting the world.
~Isn’t God alone supposed to be our source of full satisfaction?
