Im not trying to push chastity and say all sexual acticity is WRONG outside marriage, but I really think that sex and similar acts are something that you should share with only someone special. The only purpose of one night stands is to get some POONTANG with whatever skank can be found on the street. (I dont mean to degrade women, I just have to write this from the male perspective, the same applies to women)
Chastity generally means that you dont do ANYTHING sexual at all outside of marraige. Personally I dont see whats wrong with a little frolic in the garden of eden if its legal, legal by the bible, and doesnt put your future in jeprody through inadvertant pregnancy. What happens if the chick you boned on a one night stand get knocked up? Its your obligation to raise the b*****d child, and wed the whench. lol. I just enjoy using biassed language. I'll stop now.
Since (as I have been informed by a good friend of mine whos a history guru) the general practise of prolific intercourse has been going on for millenia, were not really doing anything different, however if we didnt do anything different we'd still be eating leaves, not even using tools. Evolution and invention meant progress, technological and personal. Sleeping around like this means that sex isnt sacred. It becomes meaningless when you finally meet someone you marry, and all you can do is compare them to your previous partners.
I know Im on a losing side. Most of you are probably against me, but Id just like you to consider the idea of, not chastity, but, however hard it may be, not sleeping around. If you meet someone special to you, by all means, even if its not the first. At least then its actually meaningful. But having shallow, meaningless sex is....well...m**********g. YOU'LL GO BLIND SON!!
(sigh) Im sure Trish could back me up here. In a group of apes for example, there is one alpha who is the primary 'love machine' for want of a better word. If any other male tries anything then he'll attack him and beat into submission, more or less, or at least threaten him. I never said stuff didnt go on behind his back, but the females are officially the alpha males mates, until challenged he has rights to them.
Why is everyone trying to have a go at me?? Anyway given the number of posts in this I have the right to be wrong sooner or later.
> please explain hedfix
I believe that female apes have been shown to be with multiple mates, afterall the alpha male can't be everywhere at one time.
I think whatever research you've based your conclusions on regarding this subject must be old and out of date.
More people seem to be on that I thought.
Yup we can never prove love, or religeon, or sleeping around or anything. What we can do is worship the good God Fosters hoping that religeon isnt a bunch of mumbo jumbo, and that Foster himself will meet you at the frothy gates, glass in hand. What gives me faith is love. Love is completly illogical and just seems to develop randomly between 2 people. I met a girl and I love every single thing about her. There isnt a single physical attribute or part of her personailty that I dont love. Even things other people might not like, or might get grossed out about..lol. The fact that I dont know why I feel this way in the first place (sure I know why I love her, but WHY?) makes me think theres something else to life than reproduction. Theres no way I can prove it but I know Im not just doing it just in case (If there is no God then what did I loose, but if there is one then Im IN!) but rather because i believe there IS, and although I dont know what will happen after death, I have a firm belief that Im taken care of. Whatever happens is meant to be. Throughout my life whenever something happens I try and relate it to the big picture and I find reasons. Just now I tried to go to sleep, but I couldnt so I woke up and now Im debating. At 4am my alarm goes off, and was going to wake me but after I gave up trying to sleep I found my phone with the alarm on it was on US time so it wouldnt have woken me. There are so many little things like this. But also the bad stuff happens for a reason. I live 4708 (or so) miles away from my girlfriend, and we'll get to see each other about once a year. But its so much better this way because now we really value time spent together, and when were not together we talk constantly which means we have a really strong relationship. I dont doubt that God is working in my life.
(p.s who just won the all ireland?..Im guessing kerry)

My parents are different religions, my brothers are a different religion to my parents.
I was brought up with my family torn between bringing me up as Catholic (Im Irish) as would be expected or as a Lutheran (which is what happened). My brothers are Muslim, as is most of my family. I decided religion wasnt for me, Id rather believe in the people on Earth than in someone who quite possibly does not even exist.

So then proof is sort of beyond the argument, especially if you're basing with religion, none of which can be proved (or disproved). Likewise an animal's feelings can't be proved or disproved.
Scientifically, you could say that love, free will, etc are all illusions that are softwired into the human psyche that have helped survival.
Now technically, mind processes being a reaction of brain chemical processes, each being triggered by direct causes, then cause and effect is true. But this process is so mathematically chaotic then it might as well be free will.
Likewise is love. Human's seem to have more emotional depth than animals, but the core feelings remain.
perhaps different religeons are just different ways of looking at the same idea. It could be the same ITS GODS FAULT idea, or it could just be that different cultures and different people have trouble following the same faith exactly, so each religeon is worshiping the same God, but tailored to suit the culture or person. eh.
