4.0 out of 5 stars Sex is not impure!!, April 25, 2011

This review is from: Sacred Fire: A History of Sex in Ritual Religion and Human Behavior (Paperback)

Goldberg argues that religion and sex are intimated connected, going so far as to suggest that the sexual impulse, "the sacred fire," is the spark of all life and that religion must acknowledge it in order to survive. Secondary motives include a message that human love is itself "holy," sex is not impure in and of itself and uncovering the hidden ways in which the sex-religion connection lives on in Christianity. The book is very dated with an original copyright of 1930 but much of its arguments are echoed in newer works.
