Uh, because it engenders a whole bunch of deep emotions / massive and unique neurochemical responses in people, particularly it plays a massive role in regulating oxytocin, and plays a considerable role in creating stable pair bonding between two people.
‘Sacred’ has a more colloquial meaning, and is more broad than purely as part of a religious doctrine.

I also provided a secondary phrase after that word, with or preceding it, to specify what I meant.
