There is no appropriate or reliable metric to measure happiness levels, and the effort is a semi-fruitless cause. As Maxwell would say, we can't do the math because we don't have all the variables.

I don't think a lifetime of hot sex is a basic human right.

I think you are underestimating the importance of sex in a marriage. Perhaps "a lifetime of hot sex" is not a human right, but a mutually satisfying intimate relationship is an essential ingredient to a successful marriage.

How come it isn't the prohibition against homosexual relationships that has fallen down your slippery slope?

I've never heard that statistic before.

Whenever I can't figure out why God is doing what he is doing or what he is done a certain scripture comes to mind. For my ways are not your way neither are my thoughts your thought. For as the heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than your way and my thoughts than your thoughts.

I may have paraphrased.

AS some of you try to explain the mystery behind some things and the way they are, forgive me if this scripture comes to mind and I figure you are probably full of shit.

Sad isn't it?

Call Amnesty International. Saw somewhere that they want to make the right to a bank account a basic human right as it would supposedly solve poverty. The right to hot sex would could possibly end poverty too.

But you can't argue with the statistics, can you?

I certainly can't argue with you. That would require you to actually say something.
