Is fornication a sin?

I get what you're saying, but I'm saying freedom of that kind hasn't, won't and shouldn't exist for everyone.

Some people don't have the responsibility to create that sort of action.

Everyone is entitled to freedom to some extent, but to give everyone the fullest extent of individual freedom is dangerous indeed.

Fullest Freedom is Anarchism, and that is immensely dangerous as we as a human race are not mature enough to govern our individual selves.

Hence why we have facism!

If you want to be a sinner do what sinners do. If your a christian which it sounds like you are, then dont ask anyone on here most obviously dont care about your soul. READ the BIBLE it is above your priests and the POPE. IT IS THE WORD OF GOD. IT is the only thing you need to follow. just because your popes may have made mistakes doesnt mean you should. I was a virgin till I was 21 then from then till I turned 27 I slept with many girls and I have to live with it now. It is a bad feeling I will always regret. I wish I was in your shoes to correct my horrible past. Remember although this is a so-called religeon site dont except the wolfs in sheeps clothing. when they are in hell and your in heaven you will be very greatful that Jesus died for your sins and His word is the only authority in right and wrong. Not some pervert on the internet.

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?

I'm Catholic as well; and I hope it is not (a sin) because I have slept with many a woman. But, the fact remains that I'm a sinner regardless even if I've had sex before I'm married anyway. So I have other issues to worry about altogether. 😬

Yes, unfortunately...fornication is a sin.

Bad news for me. 🙁

Yes.

why not?

Asked you first.......well actually I asked JIA........why is having sex before marriage a sin......and Why is marriage necessary?

I wouldn't want to answer for JIA...

Because if people didn't need marriage to validate their love and make it religiously legal the Church would loose power in a major part of peoples lives.

DUH!

And yes Debbiejo, I have signed signed, in triplicate, testimony from JIA that the reason I gave is correct. Now we can move on (the good thing is if I am being ignored he shall be incapable of denying what I just said.)

Now did he actually say he's putting you on ignore, or did he just ignore you?

No idea beyond a slightly curt PM some time ago, so I am assuming the worst (or is it best?)

Well, as the first person he put on ignore...I'm quite particular about the members I allow into my group.

I'll understand if I am not considered worthy... so I'll just have a schism and go off and start my own group. Every bodies happy then 😄
