Sex Before Merriage
In our times, it is not unlikely to see a young teenager pregnant. So, what are your opinions on having sex before marriage?
I will definitely be waiting until marriage to have sex. I don't just look at this from a religious view, either. Of course if I want to be faithful I shouldn't have sex until marriage, and I realize that. Therefore, I won't because the Bible tells me to. But there is more to it. I understand the dangers of having sex before marriage. Take a pair of sixteen year-olds for example. Nowadays this is pretty common, to be honest. They are both Sophomores in High School. They've known each other for a week, but they have a feeling they are "right", so they decide to have sex. Turns out the girl ends up pregnant because they didn't use protection properly. I would rather not be a father before I know I am ready. Hence, waiting for marriage. If I am ready for marriage, I believe I will be ready to have children. I'd rather not toy around with the idea of HIV, Aids, STD's, etc. either.
