There are many different views when it comes to sex outside of marriage. Some religious groups are the most against pre-marital sex and believe it is a selfish act that involves using another person to satisfy our sexual desires which some seem to think it is a rather unloving act. Catholics seem to think that sex is never about the other person therefore it becomes selfish, if it was about the other person we would not be putting their health in devastating risks, such as diseases, pregnancy, and emotional rides. “In 1972, thirty-nine percent of adult Catholics responded that premarital sex was “always wrong.” Among Catholics attending Mass at least once a week, fifty-four percent responded as such in 1972. In the most recent survey, …show more content…
The earlier statement is put with the thought that the couple will surely wed, thus there is no sin for engaging in marital relations now; although, pre-marital sex commitment shows impatience and disrespect for oneself, as well as to their partner. The special essence of the relationship is removed from its proper context, which will deteriorate the idea that there is any context at all. If such behavior is acknowledged as acceptable it will not be long before extra-marital sex is adequate. Letting your mate know that they are worth the time will strengthen the relationship as well as increase the commitment level. Casual sex is out of hand in most societies. There is no such thing as “casual” sex because there is so much depth of intimacy involved in the sexual relationship. The example analogy used by ‘got questions?’ gives a good understanding about what is going on; “If we take a sticky note and attach it to a piece of paper, it will adhere. If we remove it, it will leave behind a small amount of residue; the longer it remains, the more residue is left. If we take that note and stick it to several places repeatedly, it will leave residue everywhere we stick it, and it will eventually lose its ability
Throughout life many of us have our own views on what we believe is right, it is more or less based on the way we were raised and our morals and beliefs. Once we hit puberty and start learning about sex, many of us get curious and begin to experiment in sexual activity. We are influenced by many things in media like movies, shows and songs, almost forcing us to believe that sex is the greatest thing in the entire world. Abstinence is a moral that is almost completely abolished in this modern age. People who do practice abstinence are most likely judged and taken as sexually impotent or prude. This topic brings controversy to many people and religious beliefs because many
My religion which is Christianity, instructs us to wait until they are married to have begun to have sex. But not only in churches is abstinence being preached, but public schools is adding this to their curriculum, and teaching the teenagers about the greatness of keeping their virginity. Teenagers having sex before marriage is a growing issue among teenagers. Sex before marriage is the cause of teenage pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases, and emotional distress.
Also, the Church excludes all forms of premarital actions, which occurs either before, during or after sexual intercourse, which specifically is expected to prevent procreation, ‘whether as an end or as a means’.
You will notice that each statement is controversial. Each involves some type of conflict or idea over which there is disagreement:
Dr. Doherty states in his article that in America, more than thirty-seven percent of children are born to unmarried parents, still fewer of these parents will ever get married. Gerald McNicholl writes in his article that when a couple marries for reasons other than love, such as an unwanted pregnancy, the chances of the marriage falling apart are drastically higher than the chances it will stay together. The Bible warns against premarital sex in several places such as in Hebrews thirteen which says, “Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.” (Hebrews 13:4).
The New Testament says nothing about premarital sex. Some versions though do mistranslate the Greek word pornei, which means sexual immorality, into the English word fornication, which means sexual intercourse with someone who one is not married to.
Furthermore, Polygamy, Infidelity & Divorce are seen as negative both against the conjugal love & the Catholic Church. The catholic Church also encourages children within the conjugal
Located in the Western Hemisphere, is a small beautiful island populated by people from all around the world. Unfortunately, this country and its people have suffered a great amount in multiple ways, ranging from devastating natural disasters to violent political regimes. In addition to those issues, this country is home to around one million orphans, constituting about 1/11th of its population. As a native of this poor country, I feel that it is my duty to aid as many of those lonely kids as possible; I am fortunate enough to have been afforded opportunities that these kids may never be offered, victimized by the lack of infrastructure of my country. For that reason, I try, whenever I can, to volunteer at local orphanages and devote as much of my time and resources as possible. I want to help the people of Haiti.
The Natural Law approach to pre-marital sex is relatively simple: sex is strictly for married couples only. This is because Natural Law is
Sex is the sacred sigh of the covenant with God, when a couple has sex they are sealing the covenant with God. Breaking this sign of the covenant is one of the most harmful sins that we as a people can expose ourselves to. In order for us to enter into heaven God says "But among you there must not even be a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity...because these are improper for God's holy people.1" Breaking the sign of the covenant with God is breaking God's law and going against everything God wants for us. God doesn't ask much from us considering all that he has given us, he asks us only to follow his laws, in Jesus said, "If you love me, you will obey what I command.1" Premarital sex goes against God's command and ruins our relationship with him.
In the country I grew up in, it was socially not accepted to have sexual experiences before you get married. It was also a taboo to talk or even think about sex and especially masturbation
negative emotional and psychological consequences, which would conclude casual sex was not intended to be done before marriage. There is also another consequence for participating in casual sex such as disturbance in later marriage. Sexual scripts can be written prior to marriage, providing knowledge about their own abilities, leading to a stable marriage because they may be able to make more informed choices concerning marriage. It is also very likely for someone to misunderstand physical intimacy with emotional potential, leading to disruption in marriage and make worse marital choices (Kahn, London, 1991).
Sex is not a dirty word as some may define it, but a pleasurable experience. Women must learn to embrace their sexuality and enjoy it. They should embark on a journey by touching themselves to find out what is pleasurable, and then teach their partners how they want to be touched. A person’s religion or spirituality plays an important part on how they view sex. Abstinence before marriage is the religion world view on sex. Sex outside of marriage is labeled as sin, and called fornication according

Premarital sex simply means having sex before marriage. It could be a very big issue all around right now especially that we have media everywhere. It is right for people especially the younger ones (teenager) to know that pre-marital sex is something that they should really take importance to especially for women. Because once a woman or a girl committed it and got pregnant, there will be a lot of consequences that they should be ready to face and one day, they’ll realize that it was one of the biggest mistakes that they had made in their life.
