Together, in the same relationship, sex and love are beautiful and humanly perfect. Or as perfect as humans can get. Ecstasy is as close to physical perfection as a human being can get.
I will not talk about Divinity, spiritual perfection, God, Angels or Saints in this regard. I have no "direct" experience of any of them except through "faith" -- which is true of most of us. Sex is in my level of experience -- and is the reason I believe that "sex is not a sin" -- in nearly all cases. Sex as power is a sin; sex with the unwilling is a sin; sex across species is probably a sin; sex without purpose is also probably a sin. Sex for pleasure is not a sin; nor is sex for enjoyment; sex without the intention of procreation is also not a sin.
Religions generally are afraid of sex -- they (the religions) label sex as "the original sin" equating it with Adam/Eve and the Forbidden Fruit in the Garden of Eden. So God punished mankind for eating an apple? (More likely a peach or mango?) Why? Because God is vengeful -- or doesn't understand his own creation -- or has some kind of "hang-up" about sex? I don't think so; and neither do you.
If the "original sin" is something as small as sex -- then God is not God, but is a human fiction created by men to limit human behavior. Religion as a belief system, as a moral structure, can be a wonderful aid to mankind. But as a limiting power, as a parameter of what is human; religion itself is driven by the worst constraints within humanity, and is thus, immoral (or at least amoral).
So, continue to resist -- the stupid, the unthinking, the denizens of repression and inhumanity.
