Well I imagine it would be along the lines of, ''it's against nature, it's against God, and you're going to hell''.
Rather than just ''If you have sex before marriage, you're going to hell''.
So, no lesbian sex, no care free sex - I for one, am at a loss of what to do with my spare time. Just read the Bible, I suppose.

You must realize that most modern abstinance speakers don't take a religious approach, anymore. They simply state the facts, "You'll likely catch a disease and if you're both virgins, pregnancy's always fun.", but I'm wondering how these people would respond to a question about if it's alright for lesbians to have sex before marriage (or civil union?).

You must realise they're doing the speeches, for their own religious reasons (?)

I'm not denying many anstinence groups have a religious backing, but are you saying that they are only for sinister plots to converts kids?!
Are STDs and Teen Pregnancy just myths made up by the Vatican? Are these people just in it for the conversion of students and not to keep impressionable kids from making life-altering mistakes?!
I mean, I know I'll probably have sex before I get married, but is keeping high school freshmen from getting their girlfriends pregnant such a bad thing?
The questions stands: How does one justify sexual abstinence for lesbians? (without a religious basis)

No, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying they deliberately ignore alternatives to unprotected sex, to scare kids into following their moral standpoint.
How does one justify sexual abstinence at all? There are safe ways to have sex, married or not.
However, I suppose the people you are talking about, would argue that sex will distract them and play the old ''you're not mature enough yet'' card. They may even use the old classic that sex before being in a legally binding relationship, will make you morally dissolute.

Possibly... I'm trying to find some sort of forum for sexual abstinence, but no luck so far. Man, I should've asked this question when I had "the talk" at my high school...
