Blinded by Desire?

I just came across an article reporting on the rates of sexual promiscuity among universities in the UK. What's striking is that the article and the first lines state that those who have the most sexual partners have the worst results in sexual experience.

A survey from one of the country's top universities has revealed students who have the most sex get the worst results.

The online study published in the student magazine Varsity asked over a thousand members in various colleges at Cambridge University in depth about their sex lives.

It revealed students at poorly-performing colleges are more likely to be sleeping around.


And I think this is tied to the skyrocketing amount of depression, use of anti-derpresants and suicide in universites. Could all this scientific evidence lend to suggest that in fact we are not created for more than one sexual partner?

What irks me most about the article is that going on down through the article, the author obviously doesn't take this view. He goes on to celebrate the types and styles and locations of sexual perversion that is taking place.

The Bible clearly tells us that we were created for one life-long partner in marriage, to bring about and raise children who fear Yahweh and follow His ways, not their own.
"For this reason a man leaves his father and mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh (not twenty-three)." (Gen. 2:24)
