Why is God so obsessed with sex?

Agreed. :bravo:

And something similar is the case with art, music and literature, isn't it?

Some people, when faced with a work of art, seem to forget all rationality, all practical concerns - and they just stand there all excited, babbling nonsense ...

Signal,

I'm not sure I understand where you're coming from here.

Consider how people who are very much into sex are unable/unwilling to provide much/any justification for it; how they treat it and talk about it as something they absolutely need, cannot do without and deem themselves entitled to have it on their terms.

People who are into art seem to be similarly disposed toward art.

 

I wouldn't have thought that to be in the same category as obsessive sexual desire, in the sense that it has an energy which transforms and agitate the indivdual. But I think our perception and expression can become tainted by it.

I think art is in some ways more subtle than sex, but just as powerful, if not more.
Of course, this seems to be particular to the individual - "By associating everything with art, and art being the powerful pleasure principle that it is, conditioning is immanent."

 

Its pleasure principle does not end in orgasm, and if it does then we can credit
it to sex.
