Why are so many Christians and Catholics having sex before marriage? I say the media.

There are a lot of religious people in the world, and most of the people who are, have sex. Which makes no sense. Does it?

Well, our culture now accepts sex. It is the "normal" thing to do. In fact, there was a poll that asked students in a certain school if they wanted to have sex, most of them said no, but had sex anyways. There is way too much pressure on sex these days. You can't listen to one song these days without hearing about sex.

And it has been proven, sex sells. The American culture changes, all because of money. Money is the root of all evil. We all are pressured to have sex because it makes sales go up?

I am not going to be pressured like that. A.C. Green wasn't, he was probably the best basketball player I have ever seen and he stayed abstinent.

Why must we teach our children to be ashamed of their bodies and natural desires? why should sex be automatically associated with guilt? Why should women be brought up feeling they must justify sleeping with men? Other activites like going to the movies or a restaurant, dont need excuses. The very fact that such activites are pleasurable is enough of a justification. Only sexual activity is singled out to require one.

I was hungry, therefore I went to McDonalds
I was bored, therefore I went to the movies
I was tense, therefore I has some ice cream
I was tired, therefore I took a nap
I was sexually, aroused therefore I had sex

Clearly those actions as having the same status does not imply that they are the same. Napping is not having ice cream, nor is it going to the movies or having sex. What it does imply is that despite being different these activites should be treated equally.


The traditional claim on behalf of abstinence until the wedding night is that such practice makes the wedding night and the entire marriage special. But thats a myth, from personal experience I can say that my being promiscuous did not at all depreciate the unexceedinglgy wonderfull feeling I experienced when I had sex with women I had feelings for. There is no way it could have been better if I were a virgin. My previous experience CONTRIBUTED to the specialty of the event, rather than depreciated it, the same rehearsals of a play contribute to the success of its premiere.
