why are all these supposedly god-fearing christian teeangers always having sex and getting pregnant?

I don't think I agree with you here.  What does wearing a condom have to do with having premarital sex.  Has alot to do with not getting pregnant but nothing to do with not having premarital sex.  I believe Christian adults are doing a very poor job with our children in teaching them the holiness of sex within marriage -- of teaching them how to be set apart from this world -- of teaching them very early in life about sex and how it is intended to be a blessing to two people within the marriage covenant.  \n\nThe selling of sex in our culture around us permeates the thoughts and minds of our Christian young people because we have not taught them how to separate themselves from this world.  We let them view sexually stimulating movies and then are surprised when they act out the immoral sexual activity they have viewed on the movie screen.\n\nChristians are called to no longer conform to this world.  I see much more conforming of young Christians to the world than I see the world being transformed by young Christians.  And sadly that is because many adult Christians interact with the world in the same way.

What, did you just wake up! The real hypocrisy is being married to someone you don't want to be married to, and further, being sexually frustrated. Loosen up for Christ's sake! You don't have to be a Christian to say you're one! What your question anyway?"

People, in this case women, who like to try to throw a monkey wrench into the fact that God created men, women and marriage for the purpose of trying to keep stuff like this from happening. The act of homosexuality is even disgusting to God!

You will tend to get pat answers becaus that is all that some Christians, and people of other beliefs, have heard or learned.  I try to do as the Bible says and be ready to give answers to the faith that lies within me.  It is tough to figure out other ways to explain things and sometimes the only answers are pat answers.  I like having answers that can be associated to the world as well.  IE.  Pat answer to why you should not engage in premarital sex...The Bible says not to.  I will say that, but will also point out STD's, pregnancy, comparison of lovers, etc.  I try to think out answers as the Jewish do.  They study the Talmud very closely and have a very strong knowledge of their beliefs.

Ignore ignorant and not-knowing people, Jesus was showing he could create a miracle.. Get a virgin pregnant, that's a miracle, something that could only be done by God, in days when you couldn't get injections or anything like that. I'd say, don't be influenced by men, God is much greater, and I suggest you get a learning bible, so that you don't have to take anyone else's word for it. Decide for yourself on these things. Good Luck!!

I wouldn't worry about the possibility of them being like Haggard, I don't believe this sort of sexual deviancy is much more common amongst christians than anyone else. But do worry about the logical circuits in your children's heads. They may get corrupted with the god delusion.

Actually, ALL species of the animal kingdom engage in homosexual behavior...so yeah it IS nature intended. Christians have a problem with anything they can't control. They're also brainwashed and can't think for themselves.

They do it all the time. They find a scriptural loophole to back up their own personal desires.

I seen  this problem myself. They, in their own misguided way believe that they can actually change those of us that they pertain to be "lost". They are told by their religious leaders that it is their duty to go out and find all those who are not practicing the christian faith and 'save' them by forcing their religious beliefs upon them.  Now one must keep in mind that the only reason those poor sheep are actually practicing christians themselves is that they must be led, they don't have the self esteem that they need to actually make a decision for themselves therefore they join a religious cult where their God tells them how to behave, how to live, and even in some cases what to eat and what not to eat. Sad but true. They are so brainwashed in some cases that they will even go door to door by orders of their leaders and try to convert others. They  live in fear of their God, and are proud to call themselve GOD FEARING CHRISTIANS!  It all comes down to the sad fact that they simply don't have the self esteem to know who they are or what they want and its easier for them to be led then to do the hard work of thinking for themselves. I personally prefer a Deity that I don't have to fear and who loves me for who I am despite all my faults and human frailities. I fear few things in this life, my deity should not be one of them. So don't be angry with our poor Christian brothers and sisters who invade our chats and groups, instead pity them. For they know not what they do.

There was a time when this trend was unacceptable to fundamental Christians. Unfortunately the influence of the world has had a profound effect. Many Christians now operate on the basis of "everyone else is doing it...why not me?" Or "Look at so and so... He/She is doing fine... God can't be that disapproving of that behavior." Many don't actually know that the God of the Bible they profess to believe, actually does disapprove of premarital sex.\n\nI can remember when this behavior was not highly looked on...just 30-40 years ago...and by secular America at that.\nSadly, many 'modern' Christians would rather sacrifice the permanent on the altar of the immediate, as a friend of mine was fond of saying.\n\nI've been asked "But how do you know if you are compatible?" My answer is through a lot of dating, a lot of guidance and counseling, a lot of parental advice, a lot of patience, and a little commitment (actually a lot!).  My apologies for those Christians you have met that react wrongly to your stand... they are possibly ignorant of God's word and misled by the temptations of the world.

Now stop J Man, you're not looking at life from a "logical" view. Obviously those crazy Christians (like me) have got you brainwashed! The God we love and adore, why, we need to give all that up, because some dude on Yahoo showed me the error of my ways.

good question,. they are all a bunch of brainwashed idiots, who were probably dropped on their heads at birth or their mom's did too many drugs, also true faih requires you to believe bullshit and not question it which means to be a christian you must not think or it is hersy so you must live your life walking around with your head up your ass

Because certain religous groups want women to never have any say about their reproductive status, and to keep on cranking children out endlessly.  Because the Bible says, "Be fruitful, and multiply", and the elders of the Church took this and ran with it.  To certain religous sects, having sex without wanting the child that could come of it is a SIN.  Dear God, save me from your followers.............And it doesn't 'termintate' conception, it prevents it from happening in the first place.

Probably something to do with religion, christ etc. There are an awful lot of religious wackos out there.

There are so many misconceptions and lies in these answers, I don't even know where to start.....\n\nIn answer to the QUESTION at hand here, my OPINION is that they are very Christian people who try their very hardest to worship God as he WANTS to be worshipped. FURTHERMORE, I think that noone's opinion here really counts... you should go to the source, get the facts and then decide for yourself because these people OBVIOUSLY do NOT know what the heck they are talking about.
