Sex could be a gift of God, but when it becomes an obsession, it plunders all intelligence and people are driven to abominable acts to satisfy their lust. When passion is frustrated, people lose all good sense.

About This Quote

Sex is a gift from God that has been given to us for a purpose. When used in a healthy way it brings joy and happiness to many people. However, when sex becomes an obsession it can lead to a variety of problems. When a person is driven by sexual desire they often ignore the consequences of their actions.

In this way, they do evil without even realizing it. They may become obsessed with sex to the point where they are no longer concerned about the consequences. In extreme cases, people may even become dangerous with their actions, which can result in terrible acts such as rape and sexual abuse.
