Maybe they don't enjoy sex and only do the missionary style filthy McNasty every few years in order to beget offspring. OK, I can see that when its down to close your eyes, keep your clothes on and its slam, bang, thank you, ma'am. But why is sex more important than feeding the hungry, or giving shelter to the homeless, and all the other charitable activities that religious organizations assure us they're spending money on?

It just seems creepy, in a titillating and voyeuristic way, to concentrate on what other people's imaginary sex life might be like.
