  Sounds like sex is a deeply emotional practice for human which intersects with any faith, rather than being a consequence of LACK of religion. (those pagan practices you cite WERE religious, after all). Several (all?) prominent religions are certainly opinionated on when and how one should and should not have sex.

    More that those pagan practices were simply personifications to justify the behavior (religions built from the inside desires out), in contrast to religions that prescribe constraints from the outside in. All that's been done now is removing the external personification from the justification.

      An interesting opinion...do you have any evidence or citations (in either direction)?

        I'd examine the occult obsession in 1800s Britain and Nazi Germany as examples of this occurring with a different focus, for starters.
