Sex Before Marriage

[Buttons*]

Genesis 8:18.

frubals for an excellent refrence! thank you!

 

[Bishka]

Yes, but those men who made the mistake of polygamy were "men of God"
Has any killer ever been a man of god?

Yes, but I have to think about it.

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

Yes, but I have to think about it.

Moses sí killed a man.

Moses. Men of God are men of God.

Yes, Moses followed that commandment. I cant rebuke that.
So for men who actually did what God said, we have Adam, and Moses. Yet, David, who is sacred for some reason (i dont understand why) is also god's man.

Back to pre-marital sex....

omg you're right! (i completely forgot about that story! )
And he was still a man of God? How does that work?
... back to premarital sex.....

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

YO SOY EL QUE SOY. God is the non knowable.

So God is an impersonal oneness? You should start a new thread methinks! *smiles*

.... What is your view on pre-marital sex?

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

I believe that premarital sex is not something that we should do. The men of god may have married many women, but they did marry them.

.............and the story of David and Batsheeba?

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

David was castigado for that.

This is true, too bad i have to spread more Karma before I can give you some...

Here's a question though: Is marriage sacred between one man and one woman, or many women and one man?

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

For some, marriage is never sacred. For others, they may be able to have a sacred marriage with many.

Um, all this talk of pre-marital sex and sex being designed for marriage got me to thinking...why don't animals get married then? I mean come on. Sex was not "designed" for marriage. It is for procreation. The only reason there is any question about it for humans is because we happen to enjoy sex and have it for fun as well as procreation. We are intelligent and have a tendency to over-think things. Now dolphins also have sex for fun as well as procreation, they are also intelligent, though I find it hard to believe they over-think the act of sex. As of yet, I haven't heard of any evidence of dolphins gathering to worship some god or gather for a ceremony to marry two of them so they can have sex. A little ridiculous? Maybe. But my point is just that sex was not "designed" for marriage...else only the married would have it...all species.

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

We are not animals. We are created in the Image of God. There are resposibidades that come with that.

I agree. *smiles* My mom used to say, "look, they're getting married" when we'd witness animals doing the nasty....

First, biologically, we are animals. We are mammals and mammals are animals.

Second, even if you believe as you do then why would sex be "created" for "marriage only" for the special created and sex for all other on the planet is a free-for-all? Sounds a little far fetched to me.

This debate is about the practicallity of waiting until marriage...

 

[Draka]

Here's a question though: Is marriage sacred between one man and one woman, or many women and one man?

Here's a good one. Why would marriage be okay between one man and several women, yet not one woman and several men? Why are there double standards? If a man can marry five women because he wants to have sex with them within the law of marriage then why can't I marry 5 men because I want to have married sex with them?

Just some off the wall questions I thought could join yours.:highfive:

 

[PrisioneroDeDios]

First, biologically, we are animals. We are mammals and mammals are animals.

Biologicaly, we are animals. But spiritualy, we are not.

Second, even if you believe as you do then why would sex be "created" for "marriage only" for the special created and sex for all other on the planet is a free-for-all? Sounds a little far fetched to me.

I do not believe that sex was created for marriage. I believe humans were created to wait until they married to have sex, because man is more than animal.

Why would God make us biologically animals if we are above them? Is being given ability to reason a gift or a curse... its interesting to think about...

Back to sex.... I dont think my body was designed simply to wait to be married before i have sex.
