[CTRL] The Bible 'not suitable for children'
-Caveat Lector- http://www.theaustralian.com.au/common/story_page/0,4511,1847885%5E2703,00.html The Bible 'not suitable for children' By Richard Owen 30mar01 THE Bible is an adults-only book that is "so full of eroticism" it should not be given to children, according to a Roman Catholic theologian. Don Bruno Maggioni said he would today tell a conference, titled Eroticism in the Old Testament, that scripture was full of sex and violence. He said the keynote of the conference was the quotation from The Song of Songs "Kiss me with the kisses of your mouth". The conference will be held in the northern city of Mantua under the auspices of the Italian National Bible Association. Father Maggioni, a noted biblical scholar, told Avvenire, the Catholic daily: "The Bible is a work for adults not just because of its sexual pages but because of the kind of questions it raises about mankind." But there was nothing scandalous about biblical sex. "The Bible uses the word to 'know', as in 'carnal knowledge', which implies a profound relationship of communion and knowledge between man and woman, which, in turn, is a reflection of God's knowing relationship with mankind." He said the Bible's erotic vocabulary had once been suppressed by priests and confessors "when the climate was more chaste, and reading rather crude expressions might be thought scandalous". "But in reality, the Bible uses the language of the people it is sincere, spontaneous, a language for all people, for all times. It only mentions sex when it is strictly necessary: when it forms part of a story like the episode of Noah's daughters, or for diffusing information about laws of matters of health and hygiene, or to describe the sins of some of its characters like David and Bathsheba," he said. The Book of Samuel tells how King David had a passionate affair with Bathsheba, wife of Uriah, a Hittite mercenary in his army, and then put her husband in the front line of battle so he would be killed. They married and their second son was Solomon, author of the Song of Songs. Father Maggioini said sex was "the very first thing we read in Genesis we read about Adam and Eve being naked and full of sin and shame". In other words, the threat of disorder is always "lurking in the joy of sex". He said the Bible assumed a natural attitude to sex but warned of the "terrible destructive force which sex can assume outside the framework of God's laws".
