Evidence of the connection between sex and religion can be found in fertility cults in all nations of the past. When Sex Was Religion takes a comprehensive look at how sexual practices were originally considered a religion before the introduction of Christianity. Dr. Larry Falls, a registered clinical sexologist specializing in sexual abuse trauma and emotional health, spent five years traveling throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe learning about different religions, cultural history, and sexual behavior while working on his doctoral thesis. In his fascinating exploration into the beginning of human reason and the birth of religious thought includes the importance of reproduction, virgins and temple prostitutes, the original meaning of the cross, Devil worship, witches' Sabbath, and the curse of the evil eye. Dr. Falls also proves that the Kama Sutra, an ancient Hindu religious narrative about pleasure, love, and sexuality was really a Bible designed for the purpose of teaching others to gain favor from the gods by engaging in sexual intercourse. Dr. Falls' examination into sex worship demonstrates that phallic reverence was not only a religion, but also a cause for dominance and sexual exploitation that, to this day, remains part of our social structure.

Sex, The World History: Through Time, Religion, and Culture is a daring exploration of human sexuality, from the ancient to the modern world. Sex, The World History traces sexual attitudes from the transcendent to the bizarre throughout world cultures. Unmasked, are sexual practices and beliefs previously omitted or obscured from all historical telling. In a scathing condemnation of religion and its control of sex, the book explores the intricate dance between spirituality and sexuality. Revealed for the first time is a history of bisexuality in the majority of human cultures. Prior to Christianity, bisexual orientation was common in Asia, the Pacific, Africa, the Americas, and Europe. Religions have controlled sex and gender orientation throughout time. The history of LGBTQ across the globe is illuminated here. How have women been exploited in sexual and cultural roles from prehistory to present day? How does religion affect women’s sexuality throughout time? The supremacy of the Mother Earth Goddess throughout most of human existence, and her relatively recent fall, have had drastic consequences for women’s sexual expression and identity. Other topics included are sex slavery and human trafficking, child brides, forced marriages, Roman Catholic abuses, war time sexual crimes, Victorian licentiousness, the evolution of sexual attitudes in North and South America, the sexual revolution of the counter culture. Offered here is an encyclopedic tour of the sexuality of humankind.

Sex and religion are inevitably and intricately linked. There are few realms of human experience other than sex in which religion has greater reach and influence. The role of religion, of any faith, to prohibit, regulate, condemn, and reward, is unavoidably prominent in questions of sex—namely with whom, when, how, and why. In Sex and Religion, Dag Øistein Endsjø examines the myriad and complex religious attitudes towards sex in cultures throughout the world. Endsjø reflects on some of the most significantly problematic areas in the relationship between sex and religion—from sex before or outside of marriage to homosexuality. Through many examples from world religions, he outlines what people mean by sex in a religious context, with whom it’s permissible to have sex, how sex can be a directly religious experience, and what consequences there are for deviance, for both the individual and society. As Endsjø explains, while Buddhist monks call attention to gay sex as a holy mystery, the Christian church questions a homosexual’s place in the church. Some religions may believe that promiscuity leads to hurricanes and nuclear war, and in others God condemns interracial marriage. Sex and Religion reveals there is nothing natural or self-evident about the ways in which various religions prescribe or proscribe and bless or condemn different types of sexuality. Whether sex becomes sacred or abhorrent depends entirely on how a religion defines it. Sex and Religion is a fascinating investigation of mores, meanings, rituals, and rules in many faiths around the globe, and will be of interest to anyone curious about the intersection of these fundamental aspects of human history and experience.
