    covenantspice.com You are kidding me? You run a website/store dedicated to 'sex toys' for Christians? I'm pretty sure I heard one of the Right-wing Baptist 'spokepersons' on TV the other day, proclaiming that Christians have strayed from sex for procreation and that is the cause of all evil today.

    "We believe God created marriage to be a lifelong passionate romance. From bedroom toys to Christian sex manuals, from body toppings to romantic games, we have everything you need to keep the sparks flying in and out of the bedroom." The whole reason I bring this up is because this is a 'censorship issue.' Do you sell your toys in all 50 states? Do you know that its illegal for you promote sex toys that look like sex organs in several states? Georgia, Mississippi and Texas all have laws against this. I'd say the 'pleasure sleeve' on your website violates this.
