Well like the prost--- forSure. You pick a system, and tell me what purpose you think it has, and I'm sure I can identify a different purpose it has that you didn't know about.
Kind of a crux issue. I don't believe that God would make random rules for no purpose other than to make lives difficult. Now, if you can find me a reason its wrong, then I'll listen. But the "Its wrong because the Bible says!" just doesn't fly with me.Why is it wrong? I dont know, other than that God said so.
Yes, that would mean that God makes arbitrary rules, that don't really serve a clear, concise purpose other than for Himself, which He never does.Kind of a crux issue.

can you find a single example of any other "God given" law that doesn't have a clearly understandable purpose?You are in dangerous territory, sister. Who are you to say that what God says dosen't fly with you? I guess you can always tell God that on Judgement Day.

Using your logic, there are a LOT of young men I know that dont think there is anything wrong with having sex with their girlfriends. They dont understand why God would forbid it when it is two consenting parties and no one is getting hurt.
There are psychological benefitsand hotrmonal balances caused by reproductive organs... you can dislike the pleasure aspect of it all you want,but that doesn't change the fact that the physical and psycho-social benefits of pleasurable sex are well supported.

People train their bodies to enjoy pain.
"thou shalt not murder"
That one has been used to justify war.
Fornication back in Biblical times was not premarital sex...it was adultery, incest and prostitution. See religioustolerance for further details. I don't say that to give anyone a license to go do something, but I also don't tell people it's OK to touch either...Using your logic, there are a LOT of young men I know that dont think there is anything wrong with having sex with their girlfriends.

ROFL!!!! that got me to laugh, thank you.You're against masturbation, but you are for homsexual sex?
Let's see, so what you are saying is.... you can't play with your own penis, but you can play with somebody else's penis.
