The author mischaracterized the spirit and intent of the word of God as it relates to the marriage bed. The marriage bed is not restricted to procreation as the main purpose. When men and women were created by God, He also instilled into their humanity sexual needs, biological drives, and the need for intimacy. He placed safeguards and social order on the marital relationship, and defined rules to protect the family and provide for harmony. Scripture does not deny the pleasure aspect of the sexual intimacy, nor is it stated that the act be sacrificially designated and that the first motivation be for procreation. The author makes some positive points, but creates a sense of guilt for the Christian couple, implying that there is a perverseness about sexuality.
