Anything that prevents the reality loss we call delusion also deserves the name 'sacred.' Sex is one of the big three illusion killers. The others being death and money. Other minor disappointments like losing a competition or the destruction of some valued object or other shocks to our expectations also pose challenges to our beliefs.

I don't believe sexuality is responsible for any mistakes of judgment and it's unfair to fault sex for our dubious beliefs. However, it's important to criticize beliefs about sexuality and any irresponsible behavior that involves violence, coercion, recklessness, or deceit..."
