ISLAM: A SEX POSITIVE RELIGION

Islam could be classed as a sex-positive religion.
Though it held many positions in common with
Judaism and Christianity, and many characters in
the Bible appear in the Koran, Islamic laws relating
to marriage, divorce, fornication, and other aspects
of sexual behavior are derived more from pre-Islamic
Arabic attitudes than from the Judeo-Christian
tradition. Moreover, the Greek ascetic attitudes
about sex were at first not particualrly strong in
Islam, although they later had some effect.
The key to Islamic outlooks on sex, as on so many
other things, is the teachings of the Prophet
Muhammed, who, true to the Arabic tradition,
regarded sex as a good rather than an evil aspect
of life. This still holds true today.

H. R. P. Dickson, a recorder of Arab customs
and mores, reported in the 1930s that it was

   no exageration to say that sexual intercourse
   is loved by the ordinary Arab above all pleasures
   in the world. It is the one great pleasure common
   to rich and poor alike, and the one moment of
   forgetfulness in his daily round of troubles that
   Badawin or townsmen can enjoy. Men and women
   equally love the act, which is said to keep men
   young, "just like riding a mare."

In this attitude the Arabs were simply reflecting
the teachings of Muhammed.
A nineteenth-century Muslim writer summarized
the Islamic attitudes.

   Coition is one of the causes of the preservation of
   health. Let him among you who is in a condition for
   having sufficient copulation marry: marriage gives
   moderation of the gaze and more obligatorily turns
   one away from incest and adultery.

 Before Muhammed, The Arabs were a male-centered
tribal people pacticing polygamy, circumcision, and
occasional infanticide, whose customs and gods were
being undermined by outside forces, Including
Christianity and Judaism. Though the Prophet modified,
changed, abolished, and reformed many traditional
Arabic customs and beliefs, the Muslim Arabs
remained a male-centered, polygamous society in which
women were regarded as inferior to men. Muhammed,
regarded by Islam as the last and greatest of the
prophets of Allah, was born in Mecca about 570 A.D.
and died there in 632 A.D. [...]

Entheogens in Christianity

"... the poor could never afford to buy a hit of ergot
to experience ego death, unity consciousness, and
heaven-on-earth. But Jesus gave them ergot for free,
so that they could experience ego death, and the
priests -- who had a thriving business -- were
infuriated and seriously threatened..."

"...These comprise the nine most important prophecies
of the Hopis, connected with the creation of the nine
worlds: the three previous worlds on which we lived,
the present Fourth World, the three future worlds we
have yet to experience, and the world of Taiowa, the
Creator, and his nephew, Sotuknang."

"Near the day of the Great Purification,
 there will be cobwebs spun
  back and forth in the sky."

"The Purification will begin shortly
 after humans build a great house in
  the sky. By then there will be fires
   everywhere and greedy, selfish,
    power-mad leaders, internal wars."
