There is no practical difference between using contraception and converting to Islam.
Uhhh... Yeah. I'm going to have to go ahead and sort of disgree with you there.

It's the demography, stupid ..... Mark Steyn
Then you might be interested to know that more mosques are being built in Africa than almost anywhere else and conversion rates are through the roof.

women who reported having sex an average of four times per week looked approximately 10 years younger than they really wereIf so, then prostitutes should look much younger than other women their age. (end/sarcasm)

To: durasell
That may be true. However, conversion rates in Africa to Christianity are also "through the roof."

Wow, just wow. I don't even know what to say to someone that believes something like this.
Neither do I, but putting on a condom must be a very different experience for them.

Asexual reproduction is ... the most common means of reproduction.Hmmm. I guess this must be counting all the division of bacterium.
How is this measured? By number of living organisms? By tonnage of the organisms on planet earth? Please elaborate.

Getting a just little too overtightened over this subject wouldn't you say?
Maybe you need to have more sex!

Sex results in a more youthful appearance. According to a study by Dr David Weeks, a clinical neuropsychologist at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland and co-author of Superyoung (1999), men and women who reported having sex an average of four times per week looked approximately 10 years younger than they really were.

To: A Texan
Wow, just wow. I don't even know what to say to someone that believes something like this.You did say something. You registered surprise.
I would invite you to read the first section of Mary Steyn's America Alone.
Muslims are gaining control over Europe demographically, because they are reproducing at natural rates and native Europeans are contracepting themselves out of existence.
There are neighborhoods in France where 15 years ago the French and Muslim populations were equal, but now those neighborhoods are overwhelmingly Muslim because the average Muslim woman has had five children in those neighborhoods over the past 15 years while half the French women have had none and the other half have had one.
They have basically handed over their community to Islam in 15 years.
You can say wow to that as well, but try thinking it through afterwards.

How many kids do you have?
To: orionblamblam
C'mon, no biological explanations, please, only theological explanations will pass the smell test among some of our more right leaning members. In realty, sex is a pleasurable, activity. In the skewed reality in which we are supposedly headed (Christian theocracy), sex is a gift from God that only married believers may participate, otherwise it's a dirty, animalistic activity. Guess what, we ARE animals, simply more developed than others, therefore we have the need to participate in certain activities, whether or not a bible, torah or quaran says it's OK.
To: ArrogantBustard
And, what? You think that's a good thing?
No. I don't think that's a bad thing, but the mosques are offering education, food, social services. A ton of muslim money is pouring into some of those countries.
So, you could say that by not heaping money into African charities is the same as converting to Islam.

DUH...what about for making babies???? Okay, then, you've made a case for having sex 1-10 times in a lifetime...
I think the author was considering reasons for having it a bit more often than that.

Three so far. Hopefully several more in the future, God willing.
I've only been married for a few years - given continued health we can probably hope for five or six more.

Actually, sex is an impediment to reproduction.I have 3 kids. It's the other way around.
