Why are religious moralists so preoccupied with sex? Attitudes on
sexuality are far more predictive of religiosity than attitudes on
charity, social justice or any other measure. Religious scriptures
abound with rules and restrictions aimed at controlling women's
sexuality in particular. Is the current religious obsession with
sex just an unfortunate result of religion's male-dominated history
or are there deeper forces at work? On this episode the
doubtcasters review recent studies which illuminate possible
procreative strategies underpinning religious patriarchy. Also on
this episode: the supreame court hears gay marriage cases, the Pope
Who Stole Christmas and fan favorite Ed Brayton joins us to discuss
his new book about the violence and intimidation many secular
activists face when defending the separation of church and state.
