Chastity
We do not really understand where that feverishly demand in the Christian churches for chastity comes from. Not anywhere in the Gospels do Jesus preach chastity. Raised in the hose of Maria and Joseph, that after him, had at least 7 more children. And by learning this we will assume they enjoyed a rather active sexual relationship. Jesus view on the subject would likely be accordingly.
On himself he recognizes that almost every man has a hard time not lusting for every hot chick that comes by. He acknowledges that marriage might be a too hard a bargain to some.
The
Gospels tells us that he encounters a series of women. Even that he like every
rock-star had a lot of groupies following him around. We must concede the most
likely truth is; he enjoyed maybe more than his fair share. Considering his
popularity among the ladies.
We find it very peculiar the celibacy demand for the clergies in the catholic tradition. All the time we know for a fact, according to the Gospels, that Peter who they claim was the very first pope, actually was married.
