So, just blindly following dogma.

Which you insist that you don't do
*flop*
I do not blindly follow dogma since I do not follow dogma at all....I follow the Writings of Baha'u'llah. The Writings of Baha'u'llah are not dogma, they are the Word of God.
Dogma is man-made rules, Baha'u'llah was a Messenger of God, divine and human.
dogma: a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true.

Is it a "fact" that a god exists and Bahaullah was his messenger, or just your "opinion"?
It is a religious belief that God exists and Baha'u'llah was a Messenger of God.
It is not a fact because it cannot be proven and facts can be proven.

Why is it "morally bankrupt"?
Rational explanations please, not just "It goes against god's word".
That is my opinion and it is also my religious belief.
No explanation I have would be rational to you so why would I waste my time?
What you are describing is abusive, selfish and neglectful behaviour. That happens in marriages as well.
Did you know that 100% of divorced people used to be married?
That is a red herring because we were not talking about what sometimes happens in marriage, we were talking about having sex outside of wedlock.
Adultery is sex out of wedlock and adultery is the cause of many divorces.
Is a stable, committed, life-long, monogamous, loving relationship between two unmarried people "immoral".
Is two unmarried people meeting, clicking, having a one night-stand (using protection) never to meet again, with no lasting effect other than great memories, "immoral"?
If so, why?
It is immoral in the sense that it does not conform to God's standards of morality.
I do not need any other reasons.
BTW, I held this same opinion before I became a Baha'i and started to believe in God.
Before I became a Baha'i and after that I never had sex out of wedlock even though I had many opportunities. I just knew it was wrong.
