i agree with what you said, but we can't force our opinion stating that it is WRONG...its all about how you are brought up...
we, as Assyrians and middle eaterns are brought up in a society where living together and sex before marriage is considered sin, no its not a sin, some of us think it is wrong, that is our personal opinion, but it is wrong because our society didn't accept such thing for whatever reasons...and i think it mainly had to do with verginity....
Marian, whilst i agree with you fully that Sex in our Society has always been based on how we are Raised up, I honestly find it very Deceving to claim that its No SIN to do it....
The bible Clearly Says its a Terrible Sin, and there is tons of Sayings where jesus and then later on the Apostols Confirmed it.....
its never a personal Opinion when it comes to what GOD says....
YOU make it an opinion cuase you need to justify what Suits you, and what makes your mind feel No guilt to do it...
at the end, You are always Free to do what u think is best for you, BUT do not falsly say Sex before marrage is no SIN, because it is....
