Scriptural marriage is intended by God to be comprised of one eligible man marrying one eligible woman and the two becoming one flesh for life. But what does it mean for a society when this Biblical truth is thrown out the window?

Title: Part 2 of 3 - Is God’s Word Right about Sex?
Topic: Sex and the Bible

Discussed by Dr. Jeff Miller
with Apologetics Press (www.apologeticspress.org)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

J.D. Unwin, a British ethnologist and social anthropologist of Oxford and Cambridge Universities, studied the sex habits of 86 societies from over 5,000 years of history. It is important to know that Unwin was not a Christian, nor did he affiliate with any religion. What did he conclude?

Dr. Miller discusses:
Freedom for Premarital sex, some freedom for premarital sex, and no premarital sex
Post marital allowances, polygamy, monogamy (but not for life and only for wives)
The advancement or decline of societies based on the way they regulated the relations between the sexes

TRUE OR FALSE: In every instance, when sexual restrictions in a society are at their highest level (i.e., strict pre-nuptial abstinence and strict monogamy), the society inevitably progresses, and the more sexual activity is curbed in a society, the more the society progresses.
