I agree 100% with Orikinla plus as a christian, illicit sex is immoral.
One of the qualities that is supposed to makes us(humans) higher than animals is the ability to control our impulses. Anybody who can't control his/her sexual urges can be equated with any animal, especially dogs.

A single act of sexual misconduct can cause collateral damage.
Like when Princess Diana committed adultery with Hewith and committed fornication with Dodi and that sent her to her untimely death. OK, I am getting lost on this one. I've been under the impression that Princess Diana died as the result of injuries sustained in an auto accident. What does adultery have to do with that? Like the young man who stabbed a senior high school student to death, because she slept with another guy. I don't get this one either. Care to explain? She wanted to use sexual misconduct to destroy Great Britain? Erm, with all due respect, aren't we reaching just a bit on this one? I mean, isn't that statement purely conjectural? |

How can any adult seriously think that Princess Diana's death was caused by sex?
Wasn't Prince Charles equally unfaithful with Camilla parker Bowles? In fact, he started it first!
So please, stop saying things that make no sense. Sex leads to STDs and pregnancy, period.

It is IMMORAL Because -----------
a) You can not DO IT in the public
b) It is the 'ONLY' bond between you and your partner which you do not want OTHERS to share.

i don't think sex is immoral. it is immoral when we do it out of wedlock, when we commit adultery. honestly i think sex is not immoral when u do it with your husband to be.

basically, it's just based on ur belief, as a christian, the Book of the Law says, sex before or outside marriage is a sin. If ur a Christian, who are u to question God. Really can't tell for other beliefs, but that's it for christianity. " U shall know the truth and the truth shall set u free".

 Why are we even talking about sex here?! And whoever said anything about it being immoral (next thing you'll have to explain is why you're a product of immorality)? Anyway, it can be only as immoral as the mind from which it is borne and the circumstances perpetuating it. In other words, it's as immoral as the individual in question. Enough said!

Hello people!
lets face it ! no marketing no branding here! sex is what you bring into it. and i mean your mind, otherwise it is just a physical exercise like rubbing sand with sand.
Atleast virtual (cyber sex) is validating it. i think it is time we get real here and not allow ourselves be boxed in. who is influencing your mind. what is sexy or what is now? i do not believe i should let anyone would think he is such a dude sell me an idea of sex when himself have tons of questions or just trying to creating an economic market ffor products.
i like sex, like we all like all other stuff and like other such (human activities) they have their time, proper engagement tips, etc, however even that someday someone would make drinking water so sensual and ,
use your head,
sex is what you bring into it

The bible says all sins committed are committed outside the body, but fornication and adultery are commited against your own flesh, that same body that ought to be the temple of God, thats why i know that sex outside of marriage is immoral.

hello,
out of a good man heart process all good things, good is not primarily in the doing but in the nature!
remember don't be a fool sex, sex appeal is some people business now and they don't care whose gut is gored.
be inteligent in engage the discuss because, to some they have been so decieved that if someone sensualise sleeping with a spoon, dog, anything they would do it and feel good. forgetting that the feeling good is not from the spoon but from them, sex is what you bring into it,
imagine being with someone who had not mind, yes! can interpret the touch in the way you expect or want it!
learn or unlearn your expectation to sex, it is beautiful , because you are beautiful,
mankind is over it like sabbath, jesus said so, we are not under sex control , sex is under us, but someone attempts to tell us that it is not.
imagine however husbands that had ruined their home for 10minutes of what their wives have,
women are not soups - egwusi, ogono, it is the same thing the difference is your mind! your expectation.
there is more to relationship, absolutely more than sex, sex is just a fragment and am not talking about caressing
cheers

I thought the issue had been thoroughly flogged. I'm starting to think we're taking a perverse interest in this thread. Afterall one and all will continue along their respective lines regardless of what's said on these pages. Alright! I give up! Let's air our dirty minds on this page. Personally, I find sex a blissful experience (why go to bed with someone you don't love {for those who may dissent}) with the exception of the instance where a partner insists against the will of the other. Morality is not a question when it comes to sex. Morality is a query for the individuals involved, not the act. Afterall, the act doesn't self-perpetuate. It's the individuals involved who are responsible for whatever happens. Can we move on to something more enlightening, inspiring and creative?  |

Sex is not like hunger even if it were, abuse of food is called gluttony and it is sinful.
Sex involves two people so it brings to bear the golden rule of 'do unto others what u want them do unto u'
In man's pursuit of sex outside marriage, fellow human beings have been lied to, used and abused.
That must be the reason the scripture says if you know you cannot do without having sex in your lifetime,
get married, being engulfed with passion without a structured way for relief will lead a man to
unpleasant circumstances that will not please his God.

I can appreciate the controversials this topic is rising, but for those who still think sex is immoral be it inside or outside marriage just a few points to make hopefully to make you see the truth that will set u free. For the quote above, these were restrictions put in place for people to have self control and not a law. It was a guide which i don't think still holds in this modern times. Also, things ve changed alot and it is time for people to see that this is a new age. How many of you who keeps saying sex outside marriage is immoral has not engaged in it or still engaging in it. ayaou may say i am married now but before u got married did u do it or not. For those that call it illicit, please check the meaning of that word before using it. Sex outside marriage cabn never be illicit. Also, check the word immoral, i did not say sinful. please my people, shine your eyes and don't get decieved. Even those reverned fathers in USA, we all know what they did, abusing children. A word is enough for the wise. I rest my case for now. |

Concerning: PAULA AND RANDY WHITE, JUANITA BYNUM AND WEEKS Sister and brothers, I feel your hearts, and I know that your faith has been challenged, but that is what the bible said, “ having done all stand…, ” Yes! We have to stand because our faith is not in the wisdom of men, sentiments or the craftiness of the evil one. Yes! The enemy would always try to attack all of our kingdoms institutions, e.g. marriage, leadership, our lives, etc But we are victors on every side because we know his age long tactics of striking the shepherd in order to scatter the sheep. The issue is not what the evil one did or is doing but our response to him. Paula & Randy, Juanita & Weeks are our family. Yes! We are one great and big family and right now they need our love and support and not our sermons and condemnation. You and I know that living the life of faith is challenging enough, talk less of living at the eyes of the public. You see brothers and sisters, love conquers all things even this one. I sincerely believe that we have an opportunity here to validate to the world and ourselves - whose (who) we really are. We are daughters & sons of Love and we know how to protect and nurture our own. If you are around them show them 1 Corinthians 13, because love is our nature and it is time to act it out. If you are by the media please focus on strength of the word of God – focus on the persons and not their wrong actions or mistakes - the persons involved are anointed women and men of God – FAMILY FIRST! We know that they have the Holy Spirit in them and he would lead them to all truth. Remember fruits or acts or love is for the matured and the strong, and if you must judge please give righteous judgment. Let us stay on our faith, each one practicing “excellence in expression” the word of faith in every area (marriage, leadership, living, etc) because we would be rewarded for how we dealt and made profit with the word of life. Share this mail with your friends I love you all Owusi Jerrie www.savemeafuturetoday.org |

Why is extramarital sex immoral?
Simple.
Sex is immoral because the rich and powerful need to stay rich and powerful.
The standard building block of the 'civilised society' is the FAMILY UNIT.
The FAMILY UNIT cannot survive unless MARRIAGE is considered sacred.
SEX outside marriage violates the SANCTITY of marriage.
if you break down marriage, you break down the family unit. if you break down the family unit, you break down civilisation. When civilisation is gone, anarchy reigns, and the rich and powerful can no longer remain rich and powerful.
Simple.
Afterall King David had hundreds of wives, and HE is going to heaven. He wrote poetry about boobs and buttocks and even killed a man because he wanted to bang his wife. Even father Abraham banged the housegirl and (supposedly) unleashed the ancestors of Bin Laden upon the world.
Tell me one rich/powerful man that stuck to one woman thruout his life. Convince me thant less than 33% of them had children by one woman only.
Civilisation exists as an extension of the ancient feudal system where a mi9nority in command of an armed force would ensure relative peace for the generaql populace in exchange for protection from other armed groups.
That is the basis of all sovereign nationality in the modern world. We stay civilised so the armed police do not kill or jail us. We stay 'good' and follow the laws so that the system that allows the ruling minoriuty to remain rich and safe stays in place, and we are rewarded with a relatively peaceful existence.

@edihospita I can appreciate the controversials this topic is rising, but for those who still think sex is immoral be it inside or outside marriage just a few points to make hopefully to make you see the truth that will set u free.

Also, things ve changed alot and it is time for people to see that this is a new age. I appreciate it when you express your opinions but not to the extent where you intend to passionately sell your opinions even to those who will not agree with you by claiming your points will set them free and employing tactics of ad hominem arguments. You are right that things have changed and will continually change but that does not in any way refer to the unchanging word of God. It's either you accept it or discard it. Don't even try to use the Bible as a reference point because its stand is clear; marriage is only divine when the bed is undefiled. Be that as it may, I will like to say that the things considered immoral are a product of sociological standards. One African community has a custom of welcoming visitors by leaving their wives with them for the night. It is their own way of showing acceptance but they do not consider it as immoral. Even in christianity, it is not enough to abstain from sex, but even lustful looks will equate to fornication. A tall order! But that is God's standard and we are either obeying it or not. Our inadequacies and inability to maintain God's standard does not in any way make God's word vincible. On a final note, I want to agree with the nairalander who opined that sex is a thing of the mind. If it hurts your emotion and mental state, don't do it. |

u didn't make ur statement in the right way. its premarital and extramarital sex that is immoral. God created the pleasure of sex for a reason but we humans have decided to turn into somethin else. the psyche of most youths today is that once a girl has agreed to come to ma crib we're going to hit it off. if the babe no gree, we call her a bitch and if she gree we call her a 'ho. i mean who's the ho' the fuckee or the fucker?!!!!!  |

I appreciate it when you express your opinions but not to the extent where you intend to passionately sell your opinions even to those who will not agree with you by claiming your points will set them free and employing tactics of ad hominem arguments. I use to believe that the purpose of an arguemnet is for you to sell your point to others and mk them come see reasons with you, otherwise it will amount to rambling without sense, so i do not take this point with any seriousness, neither does it deserve it. Nevertheless, i think the rest of your point makes sense though i don't agree. Let me ask a question, will you say a muslim is immoral because he has 4 wives, or someone not married in a church is immoral because he has sex with a lady he is married to outside church. The reason i am using this example is because i heard a catholic father say that except u are married in a church is it not recognised. How can something that do not hurt another person be immoral, this is complete bullocks, please pardon my language. Sex be it premarital or extramarital can never be or will never be immoral as long as its consenual. Period |

Sex is not immoral oooooo! In fact, sex is the greatest act i have evr seen. It involves all your senses and touches the deepest part of you. Sex is good.
When husbands and wives want to settle their quarrel, they do it with sex. Even boyfriend and girlfriends. I even heard of a situation where a thief caught two lovers having the thing in the car. They said they will shoot the guy and the guy kept saying shoot, shoot, shoot, because he was at the point of no return. but no sooner had he come that he realised what was happening, then he started begging. My man if you know how to do this thing you wont call it immoral. What is good is not bad.!

So please, stop saying things that make no sense. Sex leads to STDs and pregnancy, period. Adultery brings a lot of evil with it. Although he might have started it first, it is the final occurence (death of Diana) that serves as a proof of how deadly adultery is. |

@champredd:
It is with all due respect that I ask: Wouldn't your way of thinking also suggest that a chaste relationship, such as the one that we believe to be had by the Prince and Queen, begat Charles who married Diana is to blame for his adulterous relationship? Surely, had they not given him life, he wouldn't have been here to commit adultery. Thus, should we then blame Her Majesty, The Queen for Diana's death?
Again, Diana died from injuries sustained in an auto accident. If a terrible death in a car accident is the punishment for adultery, it's safe to say that many Hollywood stars, recording artists and government officials--not to mention everyday people--would be dying off at a rate that would be difficult to grasp.

Due to the fact that man's body is the temple of God and in the heart dwells the Holy spirit. The Holy book tells us that the greatest sin is that commited with the body such as fornication and adultery because it defiles the temple of God.So when sex is done outside the institution of marriage it is immoral. I know a lot of us know this but can't help it. The mind controls our entire being. So learn the power of mind control through which by the help of our supreme being above self control despite urge will be efficient.
Its not all about some minutes of pleasure but please have a thorough rethink of the consequencies after our decision. If it will be hazardous please and please be careful!

Sex is not immoral depends on when and why are you doing it.
If you think Sex can be done under any circumstances, then you're immoral.
If you think only lovers can have sex, you're correct.
Why you do it?
If you think you do it for fun, pleasure or just playing then you're immoral.
Although it feels good, but it's certainly not for playing and fun.
Only lovers can do it. Now, people do it even with friends and with unknown people which isn't correct.
Sex isn't immoral, the person who do it may be. What he's thinking, what's his point of view in this?
All this determine whether or not he's immoral. Sex is an act, it isn't always immoral.
Have you seen people getting attacked (Sorry the forum automatically change the word r__)? That's the immoral one, it's forced Sex.
Sex can only be done under these circumstances:
1. You are doing it with your lover.
2. Your lover is 18 years old exact.
3. You have your lover permission.
4. Your lover's parents allow it.
5. You have medical check up and make sure you didn't have any STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease)
6. You're not treating sex as playing.
7. You're not doing it with underage. (For the cases where you're 2 years older than your lover and your lover is 16)
8. If you and your lover are not engaged, use condoms only.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I do not agree. When you're having sex with your lover, you are attually unable to control the sexual urges.
Are you dogs? No
Sexual urges can be control by so called masturbation. When a person doing it, it means he / she can't control the sexual urges and had to masturbate in order to stop the urges. Are people who doing this abnormal? Or are they dogs? No
I do not agree. However I do agree Illicit sex is immoral.
Please watch what you said as you're posting 2 different things.
