Is fornication a sin?

Yeah i guess your right. According to the bible sex is holy and you should wait till marriage,yeah that sounds right

But not everyone beleives the Bible as truth.

Sex EXISTED BEFORE the Bible did.

You can understand why many people would put thier natural urges FIRST, and a book second.

I dunno... I guess they didn't 😄

The Aborigines don't feel it's a sin..........Heck they do it all over the place. It doesn't matter whos lookin either.

Infact, most species have been f---ing eachother for a very long time...

Fornication is a sin and Scripture backs this up. But we have a lovong God who forgives and loves us no matter what. But this doesn't mean we should sin.

"In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Yes it's a sin to the church.

I belong to no church. To me, it's no sin.

To me "sin" is purely a religous term, "wrong/right" and how we treat other people is all that matters to me.

Fortunately, we're not all Christian. Its not your place to force your morals on us.

No theist here is forcing his/her morals on others.

Nope. The Athiests and Agnostics are pretty much trying to defend their right to CHOICE, their right to use thier FREE WILL in any way that suits them, and the basic right to LIVE THIER OWN LIVES.

Many of the Conservative Christians/Traditional Muslims I have debated with here seem to only want to place LIMITS on the lives of other people.

To me if there is such a sin............which I don't believe in sin..............it would be doing harm to others, and still with that, it's not a sin, but a consequence.

fornication is a sin only to them bound by rules who think it is a sin/wrongdoing

DEbbiejo..i share your same philosophy about sin

Sin has ALL to do with how we treat other people. HURTING another person is the only SIN

The word Sin is man made........

No, it's not, even for a Christian. It's debateable what the Hebrews meant by "adultery"—a lot of Biblical scholars now think it simply means we shouldn't have sex with married people who aren't our spouses. Meaning it's perfectly acceptable for two unmarried people to have sex.

Adultery means to cheat on someone you are romatically/sexually involved with or married to.

Ive always pretty much taken it for granted that Id wait until I was married to have sex.......Now Im not so sure.
Is it really a sin to have sex outside of marriage?

Does the Catholic Church run your life? No. You can decide whether or not fornication is a sin. The Catholic Church cannot tell you what you should believe.

I don't care for the word SIN...its a religious word.

To me theres right and wrong against humanity.

CONTROLLING, TORTURING, or MURDERING are always wrong......

Anything that is your own business and does not involve anyone else (that is not in a consentual agreement with you) is YOUR OWN to decide whether it is right or wrong.
