Whenever i walk past a church i feel horny and think about having sex in a church with someone who isnt a swinger, someone who is very respectable, a church goer or a vicar or priest, would it be wrong to have sex in a church if nobody else was in their at the time?

I'm a raging heathen and even I would find it disrespectful to be honest...

Totally fine, and corrupting innocents is always a good thought too.

Yes and I speak as a fallen Christian and Church goer. I still have a sense of awe and humility when in any religious building. Respect the faith and beliefs of others and respect the sanctity of religious buildings.

While I have no wish to offend anybody; I believe that religion (all) is a total con. Therefore a church is merely a mostly empty public building with an open door. As such if truly empty a great place for a crafty shag .

Go for it!

So, whilst you have your own beliefs about religion and what it and it's symbols mean to you, you'd have no respect for other people's beliefs?

Have people not read the OP's post? She asked if it would be okay if there were no-one else around.

Ergo, you can't offend someone else's beliefs, because they don't know anything has happened.

So unless you leave a condom wrapper in the font or something, you're golden.

How ridiculous! You could use that argument for any moral dilemma in existence.

Find something that you hold sacred (not in a religious sense) and I'll tell you I pissed all over it but you didn't know, so it doesn't matter.

Just for laughs, before you get too indignant , to those who are not believers, a church is just another public building, paid for not by the church but members of the public in the locality (usually) who had an interest (forced or otherwise) in the goings on in that particular religion.

My encouragement of a sexual act inside such a building does not insult or trample on the beliefs of others because there was no witnesses to be insulted or trampled. It would be exactly the same as having sex in the (empty House of Commons) or on stage at Guildford Tech which I can guarantee insulted nobody as it was me (the guildford tech one)!

Assuming the sneaky shaggers leave no trace and do no damage there cannot be anything wrong. There is no correlation between this and wanking over your grand-daughters toys which is sick and also potentially dangerous (infections etc) and does leave a trace and or damage.

I suspect you think it would be wrong or you wouldn't be asking. If it's an itch you need to scratch, why not try a fetish club and get someone to dress as a priest and fuck you while reciting the psalms

We'll agree to disagree on that. The no witnesses argument doesn't wash with me, I'm afraid, as it's more to do with respecting people and their beliefs, whether they witness it or not.

Same reason I wouldn't have a piss up a cenotaph, even if there were no witnesses.

incidentally , for the record, I'm as agnostic as they come!

Ah, but this merely shows you do not understand their beliefs. In their belief it would indeed be a disrespectful 'trespass' at the very least. In the views of most religions sex is a spiritual act and therefore has a meaning and a consequence whether witnessed by others or not.

Why not tho, if ur welcome to be there and its not being used by any1 else at that time, then doesnt that imply ur welcome to do what u want thee as long as its not causing harm to any1 else ?

I say this as catholic having been taught that every1 is welcome at church and that sex is an act encouraged by the religion.

But also having studied sociology and expections of social norms and boundaries

I think we are using the term "Everyone is welcome" too loosely! You receive an invite to a house party (none swingers) "Everyone welcome" doesn't mean you go there and do whatever the fuck you want? Even if no-one was about because you are a guest in their house and respect their rules? Same applies.

Ok, for example u hosted a private swingers party at ur house, expecting guests to stay indoors, but not clarifying this with each guest. Of then some guests.decided to use the outside patio instead would it be wrong of them because it wasn't socially acceptable and not ur intended outcome for the party ??

I suppose it's down to individual sense of decency. If I invited people to my home for a party and they had no self control or respect for my home and snuck off for a fuck, I'd at least hope they wouldn't do it in the nursery on the Hello Kitty rug, but going by some of the responses on here...

Because it's a bit of a joke really. Of course if people want to be religious that's up to them (as long as they don't push it on me or anybody else, or use it as an excuse to blow stuff up, commit murder or burn people alive etc). I have no problem with spirituality if that's your thing, it's just when organised religion gets involved it all goes to Hell.

In all honesty, and I'm probably going to get slated for this, I have a total of zero respect for religion and religious beliefs.

Shag in a church by all means.

Why should I respect religion?

I respect the ability of people to think for themselves, and I respect people. How can I respect a nonsensical idea which has no scientific basis? Why should I respect the idea that wailing and incantations is going to bend the laws of physics, when it never does? Why should I respect an idea with zero evidence? Would anyone respect my idea of the race of magic unicorns that exist on the rings of Saturn and are friends with the space going dolphins? No, I'd likely be branded a lunatic. Believing in things for which there is zero evidence is an absurdity, and shows a lack of critical thought.

That aside, I think religion, particularly Abrahamic faiths are pretty abhorrent. The Bible is a foul book full of incest, infanticide, genocide, regressive morality, absurdity, sexism, xenophobia, bigotry, condones slavery and is about a jealous, malevolent, vain and sadistic sky man. Oh, and there are thousands of editions all claiming to be true. Trust me, I've read it. One version, anyway.

I'm currently reading the Qur'an bit by bit, but that's another horrific book. Kill the non believer. Kill the gays. Kill the apostate etc.

Well, sod that, I'm better than that. I am morally better than all the Gods I've looked at in detail so far, and I make no bones about it. I tell my religious friends they're better than their gods too, because they are.

I truly believe the world would be better without religion. Some say atheists have nothing to live for, I say we have nothing to die for. Frankly, I will not bend and accept superstition and respect it. I'll never lend it any credibility. I am a man of science, logic and reason and I accept the harsh yet inescapable reality that this is my one life, and that's all I get. I'm grateful enough for this life, I'm not shallow enough to think I deserve or will have another.

In the words of Nietzsche "A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith proves nothing"

If anyone else has recognised my beliefs, yes, I am a New Atheist, A Hitchensian Anti Theist, a secular transhumanist - and I have no time for the cults of death that attempt to bend and break science, deny evolution and try to stop progress and that really, really pisses me off.

So by all means, bang away!

I'm currently reading the Qur'an bit by bit, but that's another horrific book. Kill the non believer. Kill the gays. Kill the apostate etc.

Well, sod that, I'm better than that. I am morally better than all the Gods I've looked at in detail so far, and I make no bones about it. I tell my religious friends they're better than their gods too, because they are.

I truly believe the world would be better without religion. Some say atheists have nothing to live for, I say we have nothing to die for. Frankly, I will not bend and accept superstition and respect it. I'll never lend it any credibility. I am a man of science, logic and reason and I accept the harsh yet inescapable reality that this is my one life, and that's all I get. I'm grateful enough for this life, I'm not shallow enough to think I deserve or will have another.

In the words of Nietzsche "A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith proves nothing"

If anyone else has recognised my beliefs, yes, I am a New Atheist, A Hitchensian Anti Theist, a secular transhumanist - and I have no time for the cults of death that attempt to bend and break science, deny evolution and try to stop progress and that really, really pisses me off.

So by all means, bang away!"

Please see my previous statement! I fail to see how this has helped the OP with her decision? By all means start a new thread to debate religion.

"In all honesty, and I'm probably going to get slated for this, I have a total of zero respect for religion and religious beliefs.

Shag in a church by all means.

Why should I respect religion?

I respect the ability of people to think for themselves, and I respect people. How can I respect a nonsensical idea which has no scientific basis? Why should I respect the idea that wailing and incantations is going to bend the laws of physics, when it never does? Why should I respect an idea with zero evidence? Would anyone respect my idea of the race of magic unicorns that exist on the rings of Saturn and are friends with the space going dolphins? No, I'd likely be branded a lunatic. Believing in things for which there is zero evidence is an absurdity, and shows a lack of critical thought.

That aside, I think religion, particularly Abrahamic faiths are pretty abhorrent.

It has everything to do with the OP's question , he adds some colour (quite a lot) but in case you didn't read it he said go ahead!

To my mind taking the opportunity is naughty but doesn't disrespect the people who consider the building sacred. Its a little selfish to have a shag in a place where you might get caught, but I will guarantee that the OP wouldn't be the first to do it in that particular building. After all the vicar/priest has probably done a lot worse already!!

Science is a mere infant. One day there will be evidence but for now we have quantum physics and faith.

would you feel ok if someone with a scat fetish popped in to your house and shat wherever..?

i think the line between morality and 'i want' is often blurred..

respecting others beliefs raises us above fuckwittery as usual exhibited by some on this thread..

Somebody coming into your home and having a shirt Is criminal damage and nothing like the same thing as the OP's point. If anybody is guilty of fuckwhwittery might be the person in your mirror.

If it upsets you to imagine the scenario I'm sorry but calling others silly names is IMHO worse than your perceived slight. You are of course free to hold whatever opinion you like but trying to prevent others expressing theirs by feigning offence is not reasonable.

perhaps it was not the best example to use however for some who are believers and for whom a church is a place of solitude, peace and reflection the offence they may feel would be immense..

i dont do upset by others life styles etc, been around long enough not to be surprised..

though thanks for trying to second guess my thought process..

a bit of mutual respect and empathy for others would not hurt many on here who seem to think what 'they' want and deem acceptable just is'nt or may not be to others outside this aspect..

opinions i'm sure your aware are like arse holes..

where btw do we draw the line as to what is acceptable in allowing folks to express their opinions..?

do we allow a free for all and anything goes..?

yes it does but my point is its not worse being discarded in church than in these areas, these are just important to people as are churches. still think church is fair game for fun as are plenty other places which are used by the public

Not arguing that it's wrong anywhere just to me it's more disrespectful in a church. I'm not a religus person just feel people think it's ok to do what they want when and where they want and just because they don't beleve then it dosnt matter what others think

Now let's see we have Muslim, Taoism and the Japanese version of Shintoism, Hinduism and all it's derivatives such as Buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism, Christianity and it's derivatives such as Protestant, C of E,, Catholicism, Jehovah Witness, Church of the Latter Day Saints, Scientology, New Age/Spiritualists, Pagans, Judaism, Voodoo, Cults and any others I've neglected.

why is a church or mosque any more special. people have a favourite beach. park. orchard that they wouldnt like to find people coppulating in but it happens.

its not about not understanding religion its the fact thst to me it doesnt exist and therefore any such establishment is as acceptable as any other place.

I guess its not seen as a favourite place like a beach etc, its seen as a spiritual place which has meaning to a certain group? Doesn't matter what you believe, its trying to be considerate to those who use it and coincidentally, leave open for the use of all out of respect ?

Would you masturbate in a school playground, stating you don't believe in the criminal justice system ? No because you know you'd get nicked. Shame it takes consequences to alter behaviour and teach respect. I'm work in progress I admit, but I know what's going to cause offence so I try not to.

And the common denominator in all those concepts being misused are people, not the concept itself, which suggests its how we behave and respect which are the important factors not what we believe in ? Religion doesn't cause the problems. People behaving badly under its guise does....same goes for corruption in all walks of life.

Are you really an atheist? If someone could categorically prove to you that God existed, what you you do then?

And being an atheist doesn't preclude you from having respect for other peoples' beliefs. In fact, the enlightenment it affords you, should make you more, not less tolerant. Or is being an atheist just a handy tag for people that just want to do whatever they want in life with nothing to answer to?

if people want to waste their lives believing what has been proved to not be true beyond doubt then its up to them.

remember according to the bible god created the heaven and earth but only 2000 years ago. when we all know its millions of years older than that.

About 10000 years actually, actually, according to Creationists, even they're not daft enough to nit believe in the Romans?

The existence of a 'God' has never been scientifically proved or disproved.

Ans as for comparing a church to a hotel, well that proves how deluded/ignorant (delete as applicable) you are.

Only 2000 years ago? Is that what it says?

And no one has ever "proven" that what religious people believe is not true.

The difference between a church and a hotel is that a hotel is designed for people to rest and treat as they would do their own bedroom. A church isn't.

There are people that consider a church a sacred place, and would be offended by the very thought of someone having sex there. Whether one agrees with religion or not, having sex in places others consider sacred is disrespectful. This applies whether or not the act is witnessed.

I have no interest in Catholics, Jews, Muslims and many more religions, but I respect the people that do and respect that their places of worship are special and sacred to them.

I think respect for others is the key word here. Not everyone being capable and this is where society breaks down and we act like dum animals... You see examples of this in the news daily.

You really are just trying to wind people up now. To many people a church is a sacred place and it's because of people like you who just can't or won't see that churches have to lock the doors.

To me it's the word respect I have a problem with. I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for religious people or places, in fact quite the opposite.

That doesn't stop me realising that they, for whatever insane reason, find their building more important than my building and they wouldn't want me fucking in there. There are places I go that are associated with hobbies etc that are very important to me and are a huge part of my life. Would I care if somebody fucked in there? Not at all. So what makes their "place of worship" better than mine?

And as for the "you can't disprove God" thing? The philosophic burden of proof lies upon those who make unfalsifiable claims, not on those who reject them otherwise anyone can make claims that are ridiculous and justify what they do by saying "Well you can't disprove it! Nerrr!"

I don't think they believe their building is more important than yours ? I believe most genuine mosques, churches, temples etc would welcome you in in a time of need, irrespectiveof your bbelief.

The point isn't about religion, its understanding others boundaries. If you get caught shagging at the back of a nightclub, the bouncer may well laugh and move you on ? Get caught in the wrvs kitchen at a charity event and you'd deeply offend ? Why do something that deeply offends when you can easily avoid it ?

Wow. There is really no debate here.

I haven't read a rational comment supporting the idea of having sex in a church.

All I've read is:

"I hate religion..."

"Its a public building..."

"You have to earn respect, it's not just given..."

"Religious people suck..."

Really?

This is not a matter of religion at all, and some have missed the point. It's a matter of common decency.

I'm kind of supporting it in a roundabout way by trying to make the point that the fact that it's a church shouldn't matter.

So it's really a debate about whether or not you think having sex in a building that's open to the public is OK. And I guess that depends on who will be in there that might see said act or not.

If nobody will see you then sure, why not? If they might then that's a whole different ball game.

Religion bothers me when it gets to the point of parents refusing medical treatment for children because God will fix them if that's what's intended.

The child doesn't get a say in the matter and is murdered by its now effectively criminally insane parents.

But back to the topic of shagging in a public building...

Actually a church is not a public building. It is built on land owned by a particular religion. It's not like council offices.

Besides as I pointed out previously it would be highly disrespectful regardless of whether you were caught or not.

Sorry for the "public building" thing, I know it's not, just got tired of typing "a building that's open to the public".

And my point is that it's just another building. Just because some nutters think it's imbued with magical powers makes no difference.

It's the same level of disrespect to the owners of any building that's open to the public.

Not really the point of the thread but think you'll find that in the case of a child the courts will over rule the parents and in an emergency the medical team will do what's needed and fight it later. If it's the Jehovah's your talking about think you'll find it's only blood products they object to and there are ways around that. But yes back to why people find it offensive to shag in a church

That's an unfair comparison. A child is less informed. If a grown up believes in Santa/God then yes, they're a nutter. I'm sure my Grandparents were nutters in that respect.

I respect the fact that people are free to believe in whatever crazy shit they like. Some people get institutionalised for it, others escape that fate by dint of the fact that there are others that believe in the same thing.

Those are the choices that you've made. Totally fine by me, I don't have to "deal with it". Just don't expect me to respect what's behind the first one.

The basic idea behind pretty much all religions it seems to me is to basically be nice to everyone, which is great. It's just the reality of organised religion that is the problem.

I think the issue of respect is for other people's choice of belief - not the actual religion. For me it is, anyway. I have little regard for any religion but I do respect the right of others to hold those beliefs - and the belief that certain places like churches, mosques, synagogues and temples are sacred - and so I simply would not choose to disrespect those beliefs for the sake of a fleeting moment of lust to satisfy myself.

It's called common decency.

Why should I show any respect or regard for religion? Particularly the Abrahamic faiths. Jainism, Hinduism and Buddhism aren't so bad, but they're still completely illogical. Particularly jains. Like Sam Harris says, if the world was full of extremist jains then that wouldn't be so bad, as their highest creed is non violence. Extreme non violence I could live with.

By respecting religion, you'll lend it credibility, you are saying religion is a worthwhile belief. We're talking about Churches, so I'll address Christianity. I'll give you five reasons not to respect Christianity, and if you want more, let me know.

1) I don't think the promotion of anti birth control views, particularly condoms is a good thing. Just look at the prevalence of HIV in Africa and the death toll that naturally follows this. Yet Christian missionaries, indeed the Papacy itself is guilty of promoting these views, based on the idea of 'wasted seed'. So they suggest no birth control or complete abstinence. HIV or denying yourselves freedoms and pleasures. Sorry, no respect for this one, I'm pro sex education, and definitely pro freedom.

2) Women are of lower value than men. The Bible is littered with this. I could provide a whole list of instances, and if you're interested, I would seriously recommend checking out the skeptic's annotated bible. Can't respect this belief, sorry, I'm pro equality. I think women have just as much intrinsic value as men. Not gonna respect that one either.

3) Treat your slaves well. I don't think anyone can defend this. Vile.

4) No free will. This is a logical problem with Christianity with wide reaching implications. God is omniscient (all knowing). If he knows everything, then he knows what paths you will take and the consequences. If his knowledge is infallible, then you will always take that path, you have no choice because God KNOWS,so there is no free will. That is deterministic in itself. So should we not punish criminals? After all, they're just doing God's work. They couldn't help it. No, we should lock away the bad people and they should pay the price of their actions. No respect for God's omniscience it is, then.

5) Christianity directly opposes scientific development and our understanding of the natural world. See stem cell research, opposition to teaching evolution in school, big bang theory opposition, the slander of carbon dating etc etc.

That's before I've even touched on God's mass killings, his followers' mass killings, the racism of the Bible, the protection of paedophile priests, the indoctrination of children, the lack of questioning of the Universe, genital mutilation, the fact he's all powerful yet allows evil (sadist), the fact he denies knowledge and enquiry (tree of knowledge), the killing of people for wearing mixed fabrics etc etc.

Until religion, Christianity particularly is worthy of respect, you shall find none foe it from me. I won't lend these ideas credibility.

Religions have this aura that means they're somehow special and you're not allowed to say or do anything against them.

(probably because you'd be burned alive or stoned to death etc if you did, which is still a possibility today if you diss the wrong bunch of nutters' imaginary friend)

Why? What makes them so special? And it's often a one way street.

Why respect their beliefs when many of them don't respect mine and other's beliefs because of what it says in their "how to be crazy" manuals?

5) Christianity directly opposes scientific development and our understanding of the natural world. See stem cell research, opposition to teaching evolution in school, big bang theory opposition, the slander of carbon dating etc etc.

That's before I've even touched on God's mass killings, his followers' mass killings, the racism of the Bible, the protection of paedophile priests, the indoctrination of children, the lack of questioning of the Universe, genital mutilation, the fact he's all powerful yet allows evil (sadist), the fact he denies knowledge and enquiry (tree of knowledge), the killing of people for wearing mixed fabrics etc etc.

Until religion, Christianity particularly is worthy of respect, you shall find none foe it from me. I won't lend these ideas credibility."

Wow, a prime example of talking loud and saying nothing, or more succinctly taking things literally and out of context to the subject being discussed. We get the point that you're not fond of religion but this issue boils down to respect for other people and their beliefs, irrespective of whether you consider them stupid or not.

Christianity doesn't directly oppose science, certain factions of Christianity do. My wife is an analytical chemist and a lot of her colleagues are able to hold religious beliefs whilst still doing important research work.

No free will? In the 17th century maybe?

Treat your Slaves well? Again an old tenet that would have been true when the bible was written but could now apply to employees, rather than slaves.

Women in the church? Still needs addressing but moving in the right, rather than wrong direction on most fronts.

Condoms? I believe the Pope has advocated the use of condoms to prevent disease fairly recently, probably not enough as this is one of my main bugbears with Catholicism ( and Nestle mopping up the survivors) but again a move in the right direction.

And you probably don't dislike religion anything like as much as I do but being able to see differing viewpoints and to be able to debate from your opposing view is an important part of being an adult. As is taking responsibility for where you fuck.
