Interesting that you believe all impulses are bad. And you jump right to murder and rape. [/quote]

Impulse control disorders are very bad.

When people constantly act on impulse, they appear out of control, their behavior is erratic and their lives may feel unstable. [/quote]

Like I said, it is interesting that you see “human impulse” so negatively. “Disorder”, “erratic”, etc. [/quote]

I absolutely think decisions made with forethought and logic are superior to impulsive decisions.

Allowing your urges and desires to steer your decisions is usually not a good idea. [/quote]

I assume that PP was using “human impulses” to mean “sex”.

Nothing wrong with sex between two consenting adults.

what if you're married though?  Isn't that immoral?  I mean thou shalt not covent thy neighbors wife, right?[/quote]

[b]Sex isn’t moral or amoral. It’s just a normal, healthy act when it’s between two consenting adults.

If you break a promise to someone that’s not good. But that’s different than sex itself.  [/b]

I'm with you, but most of the religions of the world see that as immoral if not sinful. Not sure why.[/quote]

Maybe because men want reassurance that they are bringing up their own kids.[/quote]

Stepfamilies and blended families are extremely sensitive situations and adultery is still something most people don’t like. I don’t see how modern life has made adultery acceptable. It’s cause for divorce and causes irreparable harm to the foundation of a marriage.

Blending a family is something few families can do successfully and without great effort and understanding and sacrifice. I would say the reason marriage should be honored and kept sacred is because of the horrible things that happen when the institution is entered into lightly. So many kids carry lifelong scars from the trauma of divorce, adultery, etc. I think marriage is a protective institution for the entire family unit, not just the man/husband. [/quote]
