i realize, the pregancy, religious, and std aspects but otherwise, why is that more personal than kissing-organs are still going inside another

There's cultures that do consider a kiss just as important as intercourse. I think it's different because the parts that go together for intercourse are fit for one another, they're like puzzle pieces and they make up a whole of something and that just sounds a lot more important than two of the same things meeting and messing around.

Does this mean that we have all had sex with our parents and siblings?
The Answer is because we have drawn invisible lines all over our body.
Everything depends on how you look at it. In some cultures to touch a woman's ankles is considered a sin. Some people would think that is extreme while feeling at the same time that premarital sex is a sin. Romans, known throughout the world for there orgies, would have felt all of our modern views on sexuality to be laughable. Its all a matter of perspective and what mans feels his society will accept before condemning him.
Many girls would sleep around allot more if they didn't care about being called a whore. Shame is a great deterrent.
We are all animals and without the morals set by society interbreeding and unplanned pregnancy would be more common. Disease would spread at an even faster rate and more children would have fathers that they never see. It may seem silly at times to try and draw boundary lines on a single body but it may also be needed.

Since all earth's parts are attached, why is drilling for oil different from mining copper?
This would be the logical fallacy, non sequitor.
I've included a website to show how to create effective arguments. Feel free to pass it along to people that you feel need it.
I see, because it's organs meshing, huh?
It's because we have defined them differently. You could ask something like, why did we call a truck a truck and a car a car when they are the same motor in a frame, does that seem like an effective argument? But we call them different things because they have differences significant enough for us to tell them apart and label them as different. Kissing and sex have significant differences that allow us to tell them easily apart and label them as different. Just because two things have somthing in common doesn't mean they are equal. Or interchangeable.

It isn't. Intercourse is one of those words that is used far more specifically than its definition. Most interactions would be considered intercourse, but we usally only mean sexual. Kissing is not necessarily sexual intercourse (think kissing a baby), although it can be (think french kissing), but it is intercourse in the broad sense. Again we are used to it meaning "sexual intercourse", but a conversation would be considered "verbal intercourse". Kissing would be oral, etc. Still it is probably not a good idea to say "I just had intercourse with my mother over the phone", when saying "I just talked to my mother over the phone" would suffice.

because we decide it is. the majority of human activities mean the things they do simply because everybody agrees that this is the way things should happen.
why do americans shake hands where the french would kiss on the cheek?
why do men and women hug each other for comfort, but men hug other men only on a football field?
why do young men think it is exciting to drink alcohol until they soil themselves and vomit?
why does the word 'trash' mean 'garbage', while the word 'chocolate' refers only to a sort of animal?

How can the same hand perform both a friendly wave and an angry obscene gesture?

because of the danger involved and the spirituality that is supposed to be involved with intercourse

It isn't any different at all! That's why you say that you had intercourse yesterday! and the day before...and the day before...

One is or may be a sign of affection, the other is absolutely, positively sex.

You can't get pregnant from kissing.
