Having sex could inspire some sort of divinity within us – a greater sense of purpose, perhaps? Well, a new research says so.
Researchers at Duke University in America say that sex could inspire a belief – or an increased belief – in God and religion.
They say sex releases something known as the 'hug hormone' and 'cuddle chemical' which could inspire spirituality. Oxytocin as the cuddle chemical is medically called plays a crucial role in love and affection.
Oxytocin occurs naturally within us and is stimulated during sex, childbirth, and breastfeeding.
For a long time the chemical has been known to promote social bonding, trust, and even altruism.
Now, scientists say it could also incite spirituality in men too
Though women are said to produce more Oxytocin than men, the effect of the cuddle chemical among women is yet to be investigated.
The study was published online in Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience .

*In everything God created, He left a signature like any artist would on his works.
God created sex and made it sacred. For me I believe that is His signature on who instituted sex and His Word makes it clear how He wants sex to be used. Do not abuse it.
