The Second Coming: Sin-Free Sex Toys for Christians

Posted by Emily Farris

A Christian hoping to spice up her sex life with her husband went looking for marital aids only to find nothing that wouldn't compromise her Christian beliefs (really, not even an eco-friendly Pyrex dildo?), so she and her husband started their own Jesus-friendly sex toy company.

Book22.com sells "intimacy products for married couples." But we're not really sure how the Jelly Finger, pictured here and available at Book22.com, is any different from anything you'd get from Babeland. In fact, Babeland carries far better stuff that's more eco-friendly. And don't Christians like to pretend they care about the environment? The Jelly Finger looks like the same cheap crap we could get in the Village at just about any sex shop. But apparently, Jesus told them it was OK.

"We pray about things before we add them to our site," she says. "We live our lives very openly in front of Jesus, so we just kind of pray for direction about which way he would have us go, and I have to be honest with you — he's really surprised us. ... Almost our whole entire 'special order' page has come about from that."
