what is the dirtiest river in america?

Are you referring to suspended dirt solids (e.g., turbidity from mud), or some other type of pollutant(s)?

Based on this, I can only assume that it is the Charles River in Boston.

I'm pretty sure dirt doesn't spontaneously combust.

The Anacostia...dirtier than the Potomac because it flows through a scummier part of DC (and that is saying something!)

"You're swimming in the East River? The most heavily trafficked, overly contaminated waterway on the eastern seaboard?"

"Technically, Norfolk has more gross tonnage."

"How could you swim in that water?"

"I saw a couple other guys out there."

"Swimming?"

"Well... floating. They weren't moving much, but they were out there."

I believe people can be clean again. Not everyone does though. I understand.

It's interesting to read about other religions...

In Jewish law, sex is not considered shameful, sinful or obscene. Sex is not thought of as a necessary evil for the sole purpose of procreation. Although sexual desire comes from the yetzer ra (the evil impulse), it is no more evil than hunger or thirst, which also come from the yetzer ra. Like hunger, thirst or other basic instincts, sexual desire must be controlled and channeled, satisfied at the proper time, place and manner. But when sexual desire is satisfied between a husband and wife at the proper time, out of mutual love and desire, sex is a mitzvah.

Sex is permissible only within the context of a marriage. In Judaism, sex is not merely a way of experiencing physical pleasure. It is an act of immense significance, which requires commitment and responsibility. The requirement of marriage before sex ensures that sense of commitment and responsibility. Jewish law also forbids sexual contact short of intercourse outside of the context of marriage, recognizing that such contact will inevitably lead to intercourse.

The primary purpose of sex is to reinforce the loving marital bond between husband and wife. The first and foremost purpose of marriage is companionship, and sexual relations play an important role. Procreation is also a reason for sex, but it is not the only reason. Sex between husband and wife is permitted (even recommended) at times when conception is impossible, such as when the woman is pregnant, after menopause, or when the woman is using a permissible form of contraception.

In the Torah, the word used for sex between husband and wife comes from the root Yod-Dalet-Ayin, meaning "to know," which vividly illustrates that proper Jewish sexuality involves both the heart and mind, not merely the body.

Nevertheless, Judaism does not ignore the physical component of sexuality. The need for physical compatibility between husband and wife is recognized in Jewish law. A Jewish couple must meet at least once before the marriage, and if either prospective spouse finds the other physically repulsive, the marriage is forbidden.

Sex should only be experienced in a time of joy. Sex for selfish personal satisfaction, without regard for the partner's pleasure, is wrong and evil. A man may never force his wife to have sex. A couple may not have sexual relations while drunk or quarreling. Sex may never be used as a weapon against a spouse.

RR is at least partially correct; the correct answer is (or was at one time) the Cuyahoga River.
