Sex
The primary purpose of sexual relations is, clearly, to perpetuate the species. The fact that personal pleasure is derived therefrom is one of the bounties of God. The sex act is merely one moment in a long process, from courtship through marriage, the procreation of children, their nursing and rearing, and involves the establishment of a mutually sustaining relationship between two souls which will endure beyond life on this earth.

Quote of the Day
Idal 2 Izzat 183 B.E.

The persons reported to have violated Bahá’í law, created disunity, or broken civil laws must be given the opportunity to present their side of the case.
