It is ironic that we have so much "sex education" in America now and yet we know less than ever before. The great "teacher" in this respect is Hollywood. These are the lessons it speaks:
1. Happiness comes from having sex with the hottest person available
2. Good marriages come from great looks and lots of money
And these are the lessons it lives:
1. Great looks and lots of money are not sufficient for good marriages
2. Sex with the hottest person available will not satisfy you
We know this because of the magazines in the grocery aisles. We can see that Hollywood is constantly patting itself on the back and congratulating itself for finally finding the right match. Ben and Jennifer Lopez, no Ben and Jennifer Garner, no Brad and Jennifer, no Brad and Angelina, and on and on it goes. The story is always the same. The magazines have no memory, either short or long-term. The article on Brad and Jennifer forgets everyone in their lives before, claiming that now, finally, they have found the perfect person; the person who is finally sexy enough and rich enough to satisfy; but that article will be forgotten by the one on Brad and Angelina. Like a religion which annually predicts the end of the world and is endlessly wrong Hollywood preaches its filth and the worshipers at its altars keep showing up at the designated arrival point, never questioning why they're still here.
But quietly the Bible simply states its message, and it stands in direct opposition to the twisted rationality from High School sex-ed courses handing out condoms and spewing ignorance about consensuality between those who are barely teens, espousing the false wisdom of having sex with your chosen mate as quickly as possible and reviling the wise foolishness of thinking anyone could enjoy one person for life. God simply holds out the truth and waits for you to listen:
(Pro 5:18-19)
