"Sex is a beautiful act of love, pleasure, and openness, and as such an act of commitment, it deserves the equally committed commitment of marriage. To have sex outside of marriage cheapens the other person – you’re saying, well, I love you enough to completely give myself to you physically, but I don’t love you enough to give myself to you in marriage."</p>

<p>What are you? ****ing 10 years old?

OR, ever thought about this, maybe it's saying "I love you and I want to express my love in a physical way, and maybe [emphasis added] we will get married but not at this point in our lives" ...?</p>

<p>There are many people, myself included, who don't plan on getting married until their late 20s/early 30s, but who are in loving, committed relationships. </p>

<p>You need to grow up a bit.

<p>As a matter of fact, I have thought about it, and it's that "maybe" that's the killer, that missing extra step of commitment. I don't doubt that you can have a loving, committed relationship outside of marriage, but marriage is that final step of commitment that takes it to another level. Sex is not the only way to express affection physically.
I respect your right to disagree with me, but I stand by what I said before (this time in someone else’s words): “This is because the total physical self-giving would be a lie if it were not the fruit and sign of a total personal self-giving, made possible only in marriage.”
To make something clear, I consider this conversation as me expressing and defending my views, and you doing the same for yours. I have no desire to pass laws against sex outside of marriage because I do believe that you have the right and free will to choose what to do with your body; however, to clarify from a previous discussion I’ve had in this thread, I believe that abortion should be illegal because I believe that human life begins at conception, and therefore abortion is infringement on another person’s rights; specifically, their life.</p>
