I know of a lot of people who are Christian and have gotten married really young and really quickly. I know when you're a Christian you're not ment to have pre-marital sex, but come on what is really wrong with living together first, saves a lot of heartache in the long run, if you marry the wrong person. I'm sure God would accept that as a fair enough situation.

I know it for a fact. People I know have done this. It is a bad idea.
Remember, kids. Try before you buy!

In the eyes of God, you ARE married if you have sex. So the point is moot. But yes, I suppose some Christians get married quickly, probably because they have already had sex and realize that they are married before God and must make it legal. If you live together and then split up, it is no different from getting a divorce. Besides, if you find the right person that you love, why not get married? Are you going to look around for somebody better...and if you are, when will you stop looking? Rule #1 is never date somebody you would never consider marrying.
Even so, getting married young is great. It helps you grow up together and ultimately be happier together. I have a lot of friends who waited too long and now they are so hard to get along with and don't know how to compromise with a partner. They will probably never be married, or if they do, they will fight a lot.

Do you really believe that people who live together before marriage have any less problems then those who marry before living together. I doubt it. Why does the man not want to marry you, wants to check you out first? She if you are good enough. God doesn't settle for anything less than perfection.

Yes thats sounds right along with a high divorce rate.
Its stupid really... you get a big expensive party instead of a deposit on a house.
And pletny of couples who are unmarried last longer and treat kids better then many married ones.
Whats moral about marriage?
only operating on logic... nothing more moral then living together.
as for STDs... typical uneducated in sex ed religious type (hence their countires having high teen pregnancy rates.
You use condoms mate

it really is a kinda evil/stupid post....it really is all in the be conscious 'in simple terms' with the implication that there is something dirty about it. St John Chrysostom Why are you blushing? go away that to the heretics and pagans, with their impure and conceited customs. consequently i favor marriage to be thoroughly purified, to convey it again again to its ideal the Aristocracy. you should no longer feel embarrassment about this stuff. if you're ashamed, then you definitely condemn God who made marriage. guess you doesn't say a similar about someone who took the vocation of nun at a comfortable age !!! WHY ????

Absolutely!! Remember it is a sin and you will go to hell if you have sex or fornicate before marriage. But if you are a TV evangelist, you can fool around with women or men!

No that's dumb as hell
It would be easier to have sex before marriage then repent!
