Forums - General - Saving sex for marriage... Avoiding Lust

Don't have unprotected sex with someone you even love unless you plan on being responsible adult and will have your own house/they have their own place. Period.

Seen way too many kids have babies before even finishing High School. No job, and no support.
Very sad.



It's just that simple.

For the record, I say what I say because I know he exists. I also say it because the teachings make sense in avoiding evil actions. (ie Don't obessively think sexually about the opposite sex) I also say what I say based off results on myself and others. I want that to be remembered.

Also, I mentioned a scene where Jesus whiped manipulative merchants that were tricking poor people. That clearly showed that the God does not approve of manipulating people for power. Yet, you couldn't accept that. I might understand how other things I've said are harder for you to accept but not that one. Anyways...

I guess we're done here. I'll see you around

I have a question for you OP, based on your believes in general.

Looking at your profile, I see you mention RTS, FPS and Fighting as your favourite genres in gaming (as well as RPGs). As a servant of this GOD you speak of, how can you enjoy genres games that pretty much all 'glorify' violence, killing, murder and war? Have not GOD taught you that 'thou shall not kill'? How does GOD feel about this? Would not all this virtual violence be compared to 'engaging in adultery with their hearts' in GOD's eyes? I know for sure that if I was GOD, I would be heavily disappointed in you and banish you from Heaven and send you to the pits of hell!

But as any religious person I have met, I guess you are just being selective with your believes, and follow only what suits YOU (i.e being selfish) and being a complete hypocrite.

Also, I will share you something about my experience with GOD, and hopefully I will not get banned from the Heavens of VGChartz for this:

A couple of years back, I was plagued with heavy bowel obstruction. For months, I could simply not get the stool to pass... Then one day, while sitting on the toilet, pushing for hours, I thought to myself: "This has been going on for such a long time, and I cannot seem to get rid of it. I have tried numerous doctors, but nothing has worked... It is now time for me to turn to GOD for advice". So closed my eyes, and folded my hands in prayer: "Dear GOD. I have never done you any wrong, and still you have given me such hardships. If you will let me pass this stool in peace, I will forever live as your servant".  Suddenly, dark clouds gathered outside my bathroom window, followed by a bright clear sky. Then I heard a deep voice speak: "My child, fear not. I have heard your prayers and I will appear before you". Suddenly, I felt some kind of sensation in my intestines, and from my anus, rivers of stool flowed. I had never witnessed anything like this before in my life, and I immediately embraced this an act of GOD.

From that day, I have unconditionally been a follower of GOD.

I'm nt the OP but after reading your post (I am now dumber for it thanks) I had to address it. You sir have shown yourself to be a first rate tool. The Christian faith soes not prevent dsomeone from playing ANY type of video games. And if you really knew anything about scrpture you'd know that the literal translation of that passage is "Thou shalt not murder." War is as old as the Bible and many of the first passages of the Bibles tells of battles and death and killing.

Not that any of that really matters to you as you are the real hypocrite and selfish. First off the OP posts a very real questuion about a personal topic and you choose to turn it into a flame war because why? Are you an intolerant Aetheist who just can't seem to abide someone professing what they believe? But it's okay to mock and profess what it is you DON'T believe? That sounds a lot like Hypocricy. Secondly you decide to use some stupid story to try to poke fun at his believing in a creator and while you certainly don't have to believe thhe same thing you definitely don't need to shit on him because you are a selfish jerk who can't stand to see someone believe in something you do not.

Good job on being a jerk and since I am certainly not the most devout Christian I can say without a heavy heart that I certainly do hope you get banned and maybe someone can punch you in the gut to help that intestinal blockage for ya. Oh BTW 35 grams of fiber, getting your ass up off the couch, plenty of water and avoiding foods that are irritating to your bowels might go along way in helping your gut issues. Tool.

Genesis 2:24

24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Its the last phrase that caught my eye as a kid. The become one flesh... made me respect sex as something more.. That phrase had some depth.

Matthew 5:27-28

27 “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

-------------------------------------------------

This kind of practice has been done before. Its not impossible. I'm trying to do it and so far, it has been liberating. It feels like your enslaved if you "need" to have sex.

So, if we all took God's idea of keeping a pure mind... before AND after marriage.... and as a result, saving sex for marriage and still after marriage maintaining self-control. (what I mean by self-control is that your not dominated by sex... even though you can have sex in marriage) Would we have a better society? Would there be as many players if men AND women in general could'nt "play" around before marriege? Yes, women can go out and do the same.

I would think so, since men and women would'nt have sex on thier minds as a goal but instead a family or a relationship. Also, men/women wouldn't care as much about looks and appearance. We'd make better choices on relationship. What do you think?


Your God is fake, your religion is a fraud, and this stupid idealism has led to more 13 year olds getting pregnant than you could imagine. But go on, continue to live in your self-deluded 'liberation' that obediance to something you've never even met has meaning in your life while I laugh at you from my high exalted throne of cynicism.

I'm sorry you feel that way. Do you want to talk about it?



Good for you and I agree with your opinion!

Wow, seems like I really hit a nerve here... Do I care about what you think? No, actually I don't.

In my personal opinion, if the Christian faith allows for the 'glorification' and 'acceptance' of violence and war, but (in OPs own words) is against prematrimonial sex, then the faith itself is not even worth the paper the Bible was written on. Did video games even exist during the time the Bible was written? I think not, and I am pretty sure that FPS games would be a big 'no-no' for Jesus if it existed because he was a man of peace. How could he embrace anything that made murder and war into a game of fun and competition? Ask yourself, WWJD! Would Jesus play FPS games so that he could feel excitement over virtually killing  other people? You say that the Bible is filled with tales of murder and war, that might be true, but surely those battles must have been  fought for a cause, and not for individual pleasure?

How am I a hypocrite? I follow the rules of society and my own rules developed through natural laws, common sense and love for mankind. I seek comfort in -and advice from a book written ages ago. Why would I even consider knowing anything about scripture? 'thou shall not kill' and 'thou shall not murder' looks like the same thing to me, and I even managed to figure that out by myself by using common sense. I didn't need to read it in an old, dusty book.

You are dumber after reading my post? Good! Consider it' revenge' for preaching all this religious stuff, which doesn't make anyone smarter whatsoever.

You can believe in what you want, but if you just look at OP posts, you can clearly see that he implies that his belief is the only right one, and he is clearly not able to argue without mentioning GOD. If you believe in God, fine by me, just don't walk around and gospel, because it's annoying as hell.

And why is my 'story' any more bullshit than his? How do you know it is not true? How do you know I haven't met GOD in person while sitting on the toilet? Surely, you are now showing me that you are not tolerant of MY beliefs and try to mock my depiction of God.

Yes, you are really wasting your time talking to me. I will always respect you for having your opinions and beliefs, because I believe in freedom of choice, freedom of religion and freedom of the individual. However, that does in no way mean that I have to respect the beliefs itself. I think its garbage, but hey, who am I to tell you that you are not allowed to believe in garbage?

What would be the point? People should've realized the deluded concept of God the moment their children got sent to war every 20 years and died over government trickery.

It certainly is tragic that people die in meaningless wars, there's no question about that. The alternative would be to force people not to be greedy and selfish via taking our free will, and that would be a more unjust God in my opinion.

Regardless, evil in the world doesn't logically rule out the existance of a God, no matter how you feel emotionally.



You have sex in order not to have sex on your mind.



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’

Wow, ya'll need to go out and have some sex and live a little.
You'd see everything is much easier to deal with once you let go.
