WS,

<<Man has shown throughout history that he will fail in life if he is living by his own laws and chaos has always been the end result>>

I disagree. History is replete with both chaos and triumph, all resulting from mankinds actions. there has been more triumph than chaos as evidence by the fact man has progressed through years. civilization has gone forwards,not backwards.

<< i have to say that kids that grow up in a strong christian upbringing in which the parents arent hypocrites have a better chance to grow up right.>>

I think that kids grow up in a two parent household that is filled with love have a better chance, wheather that houselhold is christian or not. I also think teaching kids to deny that sexuality exists within them is the hypocritical position. Denying that your parents are sexual creatures is hypocritical. Teaching them that sex is a goo thing, when you are old enough and mature enough tohandle it, is the honest position. Understanding that kids may decide to have sex anyways, and at least acknowledging that and having options avialable is the honest route, IMO.

FWIW, I am not trying to sway you. If you want to be a thirty year old virgin because you feel it brings you closer to God, I willnot arguw with that. I will in no way tell you that you are wrong. However, I will say that path may not be right for everyone.
