Domination & submission _ the BDSM relationship handbook ( PDFDrive )

For every person who gives voice to a question like the one above, there are
scores who don’t for fear of condemnation or embarrassment. There’s a
common misconception, both among those with a religious outlook and the nonreligious
alike, that there must be a fundamental conflict between being devoutly
religious and living a D/s or BDSM lifestyle. The reality is that, for most
people, nothing could be further from the truth. People are often surprised to
learn that we can, indeed, build a very compelling case for both D/s relationships
and BDSM activities from within a devoutly religious world-view. In the
following pages, we’re going to take a look at how BDSM and D/s relationships
might be viewed through the prism of religion, specifically Judaism, Islam,
Buddhism, Hinduism, Paganism, and yes, even Christianity.
