I think the more relevant question is: Sex in "Hell"?

I doubt it. According to the bible, when you're in hell, you're not only seperated from God, but your seperated from the rest of the people there. Apparently you spend eternity in blackness, falling, burning, smelling burning flesh and hair (ew), and hearing wailing. It'd kinda suck.

It strikes me odd that over a billion people could have all come to that conclusion based on... purely faith?

Why would it be?  Is it so hard to imagine that sex is impossible in heaven?  Is it so hard to understand that the humanly natural sexual urge could be totally absent?

"It's paradise!"

So what?  Just because it's described as paradise doesn't mean that you're able to accurately infer everything (or even anything) about it.  Ressurection means you transcend being human.

Christians believe that the Bible is the word of God.

There is no sex in heaven. I doubt the soul has such primal instincts as one to fornicate. Plus once you're in heaven you're not going to be trying to further your species and thus the whole need to have sex (for reproduction) isn't going to be there. I don't know what heaven is going to be like, but I'm pretty confident we won't be participating in such acts while we're there.

End of story.

There's somewhere in the bible that says something about physical bodies being reunited with the spirit after the second coming of Christ.  Maybe I'm remembering incorrectly, though?

Perhaps I'm incorrect, but I think what your referring to says that we'll be given a new physical body, not nessessarily our old one. This make sense, of course, because someone who died in a car accident by severing their head on a half-closed window isn't going to want that body back.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

This topic came up in our cell group tonight and I was wondering what your opinions are on it. The two viewpoints on the topic were "if we're never going to die, why reproduce?", and to oppose that, "Well, it's paradise!"

I think that pretty much all Christians agree that Heaven is a place of eternal, non-stop worshiping God. Generally, worship is associated with praising and singing, however, Wikipedia states that, (under "Typical Acts of Worship"), it can be "living out worship in daily life." The bible clearly states that sex, while married, is indeed his plan, and even goes as far as to say "be fruitful and multiply." So from this, it could be said that having sex is somewhat a form or worshiping God. Also, other activities such as fellowship, etc, are also worship. I personally believe that in heaven we will not just sit there and sing to God for eternity.

But, if we will have sex in Heaven, what happens with the babies? We won't age, so we won't die. That means that the babies will consume space, and eventually Heaven will be so packed that you couldn't even have sex without crushing someone else, which would kinda suck. I suppose a possibility would be that the Kingdom of Heaven is eternally wide, so we could continue spreading out (we'd obviously have some sort of ESP, so we'd be able to comunicate easily, whatever).

Also, if you don't age in Heaven, will you be breastfeeding your newborns for eternity? Or could it be similar to the Elves in LotR (yes, weird reference, I know) where you age to 35 or so and then stop growing, after becoming a mature adult?


What are your thoughts on all this?
If there's no aging in heavin, chances are there's no growth or death of Cells, that'd mean there's no babies, no chilren, or zygotes grow.
I think the more relevant question is: Sex in "Hell"?
