 Sexual Idolatry

Augustine famously prayed, “Our hearts our restless until they rest in You.” True indeed. Being creatures, we inherently sense our ontological poverty—our innate condition of dependence—and are compelled to find a sense of security. And it is also true—as Augustine’s own narrative painfully illustrates—that one of the things we most naturally gravitate toward as a substitute for God is a sexual relationship. The tendency to make an idol of sex isn’t simply a feature of a decadent American culture, or even of the West more broadly. An idolatrous fixation on sexual union has been a staple in human depravity for as far back as our collective memory will take us. In this brief post I offer a few preliminary thoughts on why sexual sin is so often the sin of choice, and why sexual sin is uniquely destructive to our humanity.

I read this at work and came home to read it again and guess what? It is gone! It was a very good article too...
