Before you go, think about this…

John Mann explains that S Augustine declared that a man who enjoyed sex with his wife and aroused her sufficiently to enjoy it, treated her in effect as a whore and he behaved like an adulterer. Virginity was the moral ideal and marriage without sex the next best thing, but masturbation was forbidden, and onanism was a sin. An Anglo-Saxon penitential of around 800 AD prescribed seven years or a lifelong penance for oral intercourse, ten years for anal intercourse and seven to ten years for aborting a foetus. During intercourse, the missionary position was naturally approved, but the woman on top meant three years penance.

The Wisdom of Carl
The ink was barely dry on the Bill of Rights before politicians found a way to subvert it, by cashing in on fear and patriotic hysteria. In 1798, the ruling Federalist Party knew that the button to push was ethnic and cultural prejudice. Exploiting tensions between France and the US, and a widespread fear that French and Irish immigrants were somehow intrinsically unfit to be Americans, the Federalists passed a set of laws that have come to be known as the Alien and Sedition Acts.
Carl Sagan, The Demon Haunted World (1996)
