My pappy got me my Green Day CD. They went to Norfolk yesterday while I was at Heidi's birthday thing (HAPPY FUCKING BIRTHDAY HEIDI!). I am now up one Green Day CD and down 10 dollars. Oh well. My mother still owes me... 8, maybe? So, yeah. It's all good

I really have nothing to say to that right there.

[jordy_bagordy]

Then why on earth did you post a comment?

[lizard_2008]

Really?

[lyontamer_2005]

I am so indifferent on the subject, all I say is everyone needs to be careful in what they do, it's just difficult hearing many different things pounded in your head on what's right and wrong on the subject.

Deuteronomy 22:13-30 (especially verse 21). It's not what I was originally looking for, but it works.

My opinion has always been that if you love someone enough you can wait until marriage.

You believe if a womanchild was to have sexually been active while still in her father's house to be stoned?

[imasmartboy]

Try reading the whole passage, from 13 all the way to 30.

It depends on the situation. If she had sex with someone without letting anyone know, and was old enough to know it was wrong, then that is what it says. If, on the other hand, she was raped and couldnt do anything to stop it, then it says that only the rapist should be stoned.

[ex_blueprin]

But she says she "especially" likes verse 21.

"she shall be brought to the door of her father's house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father's house. You must purge the evil from among you."

Please, correct me if I'm wrong if that is what Deuteronomy 22:21 says.

I agree. I don't get what the big difference is between being married and being in a serious relationship/living together besides a few financial differences and paperwork. It's just a bunch of legal crap. If you love and trust someone enough, you should be able to make your own choices based on your own thoughts and feelings, and not rely on your religion to do it for you. That was kind of off-subject, but oh well.

Thank you, Jordna.

[jordy_bagordy]

Don't mention it, Lif.

[slipkorn22]

yeah, i have to agree with metallic red,but i still have to wonder, why are you worrying about that?

[lizard_2008]

It was just something that popped into my head at the moment.

[slipkorn22]

ohhhh, like when you wonder what is really happening in the teachers lounge? or some other off the wall question

The whole idea of marriage is to formalize the bond between two people. Taken from a christian perspective, marriage is the commitment of two people to spend their lives together. Ive thought a lot about this, and i think that sex is the same way; it is a commitment for life. While i dont think it is wrong to have sex before marriage, i do believe that if at all possible it should wait, and no matter what, should not be given lightly. It is something that should only be shared with one person; it is the most profound commitment a person can make. In my opinion, the only reason to have sex before marriage is if it is impossible to get married for some really strange reason like being trapped on an island with no priest

[ex_blueprin]

Marriage is there to formalize the connection through two people bound by law.

LAW IS NOT LOVE. And it never will be.

[jordy_bagordy]

EXACTLY what I meant. THANK-YOU!!!

[ex_blueprin]

Of course. I've never believed in marriage as showing love to someone.

It goes against everything love is supposed to be about. For instance: THE WEDDING. You spend THOUSANDS of dollars on a wedding, when really love shouldn't be bought by money, right?

Marriage is a contradiction of love. Marriage doesn't guarentee anything. It just solidifies your relationship in lawful terms, so you're respected/rejected from society.
