This guy is a Pastor and he believes people should have sex-- and not the unprotected, married kind of sex that may result in 14 babies. The other kind-- the kind that people actually want to have!
"You tend to hear about the 'Thou shalt nots,' " Underwood said. "We want to talk about the 'Thou shalts.'"
In a story in today's Palm Beach Post, Pastor Ray Underwood explains why he's chosen to feature sex advice in his Sunday sermons for the past several weeks (and through March 1st.) Among the choice excerpts:
"I think we should be more aggressive and upfront about talking about
critical issues in people's lives. In the past, I think we were
embarrassed and unsure about ourselves."
Underwood gave his first sermon, "Hot Monogamy," a PG-11 rating and
suggested that parents take kids under that age to the child care
center. A video projected on the church's big screen said, "so ... sex
in church? Are we really going to talk about this? We need to." Though
it could be kind of weird, the video warned — "like seeing a nude scene
with your parents."
"We try to stay real, but this is a little more on the edge," he said. "Hopefully we won't fall off a cliff."
We personally hope you succeed, Pastor Ray, for if there's one thing religion needs, it's more sex. No, seriously-- perhaps if people were happier about their love lives, they'd leave the gays, Democrats, and other religions in peace.
And if anyone's going to make that happen, it's this guy:
Underwood often preaches in jeans, and the church's services feature
video, drums and electric guitar. Though the church's style is edgy, he
said, its message is more conservative.
