The false dichotomy between body and spirit is responsible for the sexual repression in the Churches which led to the sexual abuse of children.
Despising your body is not a path to spiritual enlightenment.
Only when you rid your mind of all negative attitudes can you be said to be truly enlightened. And this includes negative attitudes to your body.
Sex is not bad or dead.
Sex is an intimate part of God's good creation.
Sex is an expression of love.
And as such it should not be despised.
Better to seek harmony of body, mind, and spirit mediated by a loving heart.
