Logical
In John Clarke’s The Romans and Their Conquests (April 26) he stated that “what we call normal sex is a creation of our own culture”. Really? If that’s the case, how is it that circa 56AD, the Apostle Paul who live in Rome described the sexual excesses of non-Christians as “unnatural”.
Well, maybe because “our own culture” is pretty much based on Christianity, especially the stuff that deals with sexuality? Alas, the writer had meant this only as a rhetoric question and therefore answered it himself:
It is not that “normal sex” is a creation of our own culture but that it is a creation of God.
I must say I’m a bit disappointed with the Times. This piece of logic and argumentation wouldn’t be out of place on the pages of, say, Karjalan Heili, the free weekly newspaper of my beloved home town Joensuu, but on the pages of the Times… O tempora, O mores!
