Is premarital sex moral or immoral?

Eating food makes those centers activate, as well. Anything that is pleasurable will make the same regions activate.

People with sex addictions have impulsive personalities they can't control. It's not because sex itself is addicting. Anything can be psychologically addicting if you're predisposed to addiction.
I have heard sex isn't addicting, because someone can resist one night if they need to, but from experience a long time ago I'd say it just enhances your desire to do it again. Each time will make you want it again more, not less.

Sex is in the same category as eating, really. It feels good as an incentive to for you do it again and it's a primal biological instinct for survival (eating for personal survival and sex for the survival of the species). There's people with food addictions, as well.

T Evolution has eliminated God in the minds of many, and placed us all in the category of animals....it's OK to behave like them apparently. :(

Which god? Some are moral and some not. Yahweh certainly was not moral. Rape was condoned and so as murder. Nice god... And we are animals, albeit we do not need instinct as much as other animals do.

If the young woman isn't taking sex advice from the likes of John the Revelator it shows she has good sense which is a credit to God's innate qualities within her.

Anyone who is in cohoots with the devil doesn't have the good sense of God or anyone else in her.

I think sex is way more in those brain areas than eating, unless you're obese. Also, families are important to the survival of the human race, and adultery and masturbation I believe can break them apart if you get creative with me.

No, eating is very pleasurable, too. Some may enjoy it more than sex. Obesity has nothing to do with it. Not all obese people are food addicts.

I would also like to mention that a good reason for saving sex for marriage is because sex can and often does result in children and the stability and hopefully permanent nature of a marriage is a much better situation to raise children in than an uncommitted a non-permanent dating relationship or other types of situations which have no stability or commitment.

Biblical marriage is one man and as many women as he could afford. Not the best reason.

Correlation doesn't equal causation though. Have studies actually been done which prove that abstinence-only education actually causes such problems or do we simply know that the problems are correlated?

Religious kids are not prepared for sex when it happens because they were told not to so they are ashamed if caught buying bc.

I know a person who has 4 children to 3 different women. His life is absolute hell. The life of the children has been destroyed. The women fight over things they want, if he buys a car for one of them then the other one won’t let him see his children until she gets a car too! His shirts get ripped. He goes out with other women on top of that and they recently lit his shirt, threw it in the car and the car exploded. They were out of the car then. There is a very good reason for monogamy and this person has shown me clearly why.

If anyone wants to have that sort of life good luck to them. I’m happily married to one beautiful soul for 40 years and I live in contentment and peace.

A culture that says "we could die at any time" is not one to plan for the future. It's the "live for today" mindset that can be uncaring and irresponsible.

Pick your theory...mine ends well...what about yours...? :)
Have no idea what this means. Can you please elaborate?

What theory do you have as to when homo sapiens sapiens arose on the evolutionary scale? We most definitely are here. Are you saying God poofed modern humans into existence? If so why and when? What did God want from us he couldn't get from dinos? What makes us different than dinos? Why did God wipe out the dinos and the humans of Noah's age?

What exactly is it this God wants us to do?

How do you know what is in the bible is true?

How do you know it is from God?

What is God and how would I recognize it if it came to get me?
