I'm not a Christian, so please forgive me ahead of time for answering. I tried hard to be a Christian, I really did. I utilized everything within my scope of knowledge, reason, emotion, and intellect; I read every book I could get my hands on, every prayer ever written, everything within my heart and my head, and I did it until I was 40 years old...40 YEARS OLD!! That is when I prayed the hardest, because my brother was dying of cancer, and that is when I needed it the most! My brother, 39 years old with a wife and THREE children, was DEAD! And STILL my heart was empty!
It was then that I made a conscious decision not to waste any more of my valuable time on this planet jumping through hoops, and begging for something that wasn't there in the first place! If God exists, He turned His back on me! Now I am nearly 52, and I've honestly NEVER been happier!
So in answer to your question, I don't need a God to tell me what I'm "supposed to be". As long as I live my life in a "religiously" decent way, and I'm not breaking any laws or hurting anyone, I can do it MY WAY, and not be fearful of the consequences! I suggest that you continue being the good person that you are, and you will never have to worry about who or what you're "supposed to be" ever again! Being a virgin is special, very special--but being able to experience the unparallelled joy of making love with someone who loves you is ALSO very special!! Enjoy your life, with ALL it has to offer, and you never have to feel like you're being judged again!! God didn't create you to FEEL GUILT about something that comes so naturally to us!! That is what WE DID!! If God punishes you for it, then He's not the loving God that they all say anyway!! Love often, and love with all your heart. And if you want to, MAKE LOVE as well! Who's it hurting??

one million. Hermaphrodites are often sterile, and basically some creatures have ever been shown to offer offspring by utilising this technique. Amphibians, reptiles (the Komodo dragon some weeks in the past) and decrease organisms. No information of this taking place in mammals. Human hermaphrodites don't have useful sexual organs or the two sexes, and frequently neither. 2. plenty greater conceivable that Joseph impregnated her and that they did no longer tell her mom and father. Or that she have been with a guy different than Joseph and did no longer tell him. The penalty for intercourse exterior of marriage became stoning to dying, inspite of each thing. 3. the main probable rationalization, in spite of the indisputable fact that, is that Mary on no account existed, and the full tale is purely that....a tale. Virgin births and ladies procreating with gods have been very trouble-free in the myths of a important sort of different cultures, and the virgin start tale became probable borrowed and tacked directly to the christianity delusion as human beings have been accustomed to those kinds of legendary events. 4. If Mary did easily exist...i don't be attentive to, and that i do no longer likely care...the unique notice in Hebrew potential "maiden" (i.e a youthful woman) no longer "virgin"....which might purely make Joseph a pedophile like Muhammed.

Yes a Christian should be a virgin until they are married. I am 51 but have been married so no longer a virgin.

Yeah, I couldn't agree more.
Christians are supposed to be virgins like Virgin Mary. And if possible, getting pregnant while maintain as a virgin.

Being a Christian, means believing in Christ..and he told us to "go forth and multiply", meaning bear children..so the answer is no, not all Christian's are supposed to be virgins.

I was a virgn when I got married and i f you have to ask then 1. your not a chrisitan or 2. you are a fresh green noob and you need to be taught why Christians choose to be virgins until they find that one mate God has given them. My husband and I were both Virgins when we got married.

I am christian and no not a virgin. I'm happily married for 2 yrs and have a beautiful baby girl. and to answer your question yes they are until they get married. cuz they are supposed to save their virginity for the person they are going to marry. men are supposed to save themselves for their furtur wife and vice versa for girls. sex is a sacred thing that is to be shared for the peson you are to spen the rest of your life with.

I'm 47...and no, I'm not.;). To be a Christian, you don't have to be a virgin. But it is better to wait until you can be responcible before you have sex. In bibilical times, to Marry was to show responcibility. ^_^ I like to think (for myself) not to marry shows I'm responcible;). (by that I don't mean I have sex with others alot...it's that I won't have a physical relationship with another until I am sure what I am getting into)

No. i am 23 and a virgin, but that won't get me to heaven.
Only believing in Jesus' Resurrection and the blood he shed for us will.
I plan to lose mine if I ever marry, but not before.
