The Bible says, “To the pure, all things are pure.” (Titus 1:15) The Lord created your body, and no part of it is imperfect or unclean. God also created our bodies for pleasure including standard sexual intercourse, that we can enjoy this pleasure and share it with a partner.

In Christian discussions concerning oral sex, the Song of Solomon is most frequently cited as an example of scriptural allusion to the act: Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. In his shade I took great delight and sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. (Song of Solomon 2:3)

While the previous passage refers to fellatio, the following can be read as a metaphor for cunnilingus: Awake, O north wind, and come, wind of the south; make my garden breathe out fragrance, let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden and eat its choice fruits! (Song of Solomon 4:16)

And again, the Song of Solomon urges lovers to eat and drink freely of one another’s bodies: I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved. (Song of Solomon 5:1) This reading of the scriptures portrays the act of oral sex as both natural, like eating, and a joyful expression of love, passion, and sexual sharing between a man and woman.

In the New Testament, this passage directs partners to render “benevolence” to one another, which can be extended to performing oral sex on each other as part of their duty to the Lord and one another: Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. (Corinthians 7:33) Not only does this passage imply that oral sex between a man and woman is acceptable and desirable, but as we shall see, the Bible also provides more specific edicts concerning the completion of the oral sex act, namely swallowing the male emission.

Most of us are familiar with the Biblical story of Onan, whose sin against God was that of spilling his seed on the ground:

And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. 10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also. (Genesis 38:9)

This scriptural passage has traditionally been used as an injunction against masturbation. However, upon closer reading, it becomes apparent that this scenario has nothing to do with masturbation at all. Onan was not masturbating; he was copulating with his brother’s wife (and there was a good reason for that, in God’s plan). His sin was pulling out (coitus interruptus) and ejaculating on the ground rather than into the woman. He did so in order to avoid impregnating her. However, he could have easily avoided God’s wrath (and the penalty of death), by simply having the woman fellate him and then swallow his semen. This would have kept him from impregnating her, as well as completely prevented the spilling of seed that was an offense in God’s eyes.

The extreme case of Onan aside, how bad is it in general to spill semen? The Old Testament ranks it with other acts of uncleanliness that meet with God’s disapproval: And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even. 17 And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed of copulation, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even. (Leviticus 15:16-17) Getting ejaculate on oneself or one’s clothing results in uncleanness that requires extensive reparations and atonement. Obviously one simple way to prevent the spillage of semen is to have your partner perform fellatio and swallow the emission. In fact, in light of these scriptures, performing fellatio to completion and then spitting out the resulting emission seems almost unthinkable.

Aside from swallowing semen as a measure to prevent the waste and spillage of seed, ingesting ejaculate can have spiritual benefits, as we will see. Although the Old Testament makes reference to the bitterness of semen (And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water. [Numbers 5:24]), the New Testament casts the act of consuming ejaculate in a much more affirming light, as in the following passage, where Jesus speaks to the woman of Samaria about the gift of “living water”:

Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, "Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water." 11 The woman said to him, "Sir, you have no bucket, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water?...15 The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I may never be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water." 16 Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come back." (John 4:10-16)

“Living water” in this context refers to semen, which literally is the liquid of life. As Christ indicates, drinking of the “living water” provides a spiritual replenishment for the soul. When the woman asks Jesus where she can get this “water”, he tells her to fetch her husband, clearly with the intention of instructing her on how to fellate him and swallow his semen.

While it’s true that the Lord bade us to “be fruitful and multiply,” (Gen 1:22) the Bible also counsels that “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” (Ecl. 3:1).

So, there should be no problem regarding use of sex toys in a religious marriage.

Men are, as all other living creatures, biologically programed to mate and reproduce. Men are generally physically stronger than women and therefore the dominant gender. Men cannot suppress their reproductive urges and concluded somehow that the object of their desire was to blame rather that their lack of self control. The myth of the garden of eden was created to justify men's blame shifting to women. God being a "male" (our father in heaven) reinforces man's dominance over their mates.

In the myth, Eve is created because God saw that Adam was "lonely". Was Adam doing the goats and swine? Was he just spanking his tool? Regardless, the solution to Adam's loneliness was a receptical for his tool. The realization by both, after the apple incident, that they had been running around buck naked all their lives is wrongly interpretated as an indication they were virgins prior to this event. Satan taking the phallic form of a snake suggests that women will reject God's plan when in the presence of anything that resembles a penis, as women are the "lustful" of the genders as evidenced by their ability to seduce men.
As a result of the apple incident, the couple is sentenced to death because prior to this they were immortal. Women are additionally sentenced to 9 months followed by hard labor via childbirth. Snakes are condemned to crawl on their bellies and suffer the hatered of mankind, even though they really had nothin to do with any of this. They just happen to kinda look like a penis.Other implications of this myth include:
1. Women are decietful.
2. Women are unable to follow devine direction.
3. If Adam had kept a shorter leash on Eve, she would not have had the oppurtunity to be decieved.
4. If Adam had not listened to Eve he'd still be immortal in paradise.
5. Women should not even look at anything that promotes sexual intrest other than their husband.

Christians have mixed messages form the church reguarding sex. It is a gift from God, it is also a curse from God. Many men have cut off their tool or had their stones smashed to prevent their path to spirituality hindered by womens evil proccupation with carnal lust.

Personally, I feel that any product that is marketed as "for us by us" further separates groups from one another. Toys, contraceptives and variety in sex is healthy for the sexual libido, promotes gender equality, enhances the experience and can further strengthen the bond between lovers.

I think its great! I don't understand why people find sex 'bad'. If they believe God made us, then God made us feel really good while having sex, how can it be a bad or evil thing? Its our bodies and purely natural. And wouldn't self pleasuring be better then looking for pleasure from others while not married?

Well to be in line with the philosophy, you wold have to buy and use the sex toy on yourself, but the most needy would receive all the benefits.
Won't be a huge seller.
