I think sex is completely natural and it is regarded as a human rights. But some religious faith interfering that and prohibited their followers to have sex before the marriage. Islam is evidently one of them. So does your belief interfere your rights to have sex before you achieve marriage? If so what are good reasons to justify that? I didn't mean to be offensive/bias here but I only wonder why sex can be very strict for certain belief.

Well, I can only tell that the main reason why Muslim are prohibited from having sex before the marriage is to prevent 'Zinah'. This means that if two unmarried couples are having sex and accidentally fertilize that will be recorded as an ultimate sin. But, now days some Muslim began to neglect that command and choose to do it even before the marriage. World over time has changed. But, in exception to that we definitely still have to wear a birth control in order to avoid fertilization. So to answer your question, based on my religious belief its a no but based on my personal belief I have to say yes.

The bible shows that God put Adam and Eve together... since He was the only means of law/rulership @ the time (and because it came directly from Him), there was no further need for validation of this act. It was by all means a wedding/marriage. Everything regarding marriage recorded in the Bible leads us to reasonably conclude that sex between a couple that are not in legally recognized marriage are committing fornication, which is a sin.

Based on the religion I associate with, no.
Based on my personal beliefs, yes. I don't think there are good reasons to justify saying it is ALWAYS wrong.
Do I go around and exercise this freedom whenever I get an itch? Nope, I'm a responsible chick. A lot of Christians seem to think people with my line of thinking just try and justify our actions. But it's genuinely what I believe.

My religion is agansit it but even so i don't know that i would. What is the point with sleeping around you have to sleep with someone to know you want to marry them then your not really marrying for the right reasons. Im not saying everyone does that but some do and that is their excuse for having se before marriage. But if others want to then that's fine for me though i would rather wait. To each his own.

I do the allowing and disallowing when it comes to things like that. I was allowed and had pre marital sex every time I got on the beach. I allowed myself to get drunk also.

No beliefs = no interference - one of the many, many benefits of not allowing religions to control my life!

Being an atheist I don't allow myself to be ruled by some ridiculous laws written hundreds of years ago by men who wanted to control others

Yes, sex before marriage is not a problem at all. One of the joys of life is sexual relations. It is good to be Wiccan.

I know...sex, in the right way...is an expression of love between two people, so why should religion (when most of the time says "LOVE is good") not let it's practiioners show their love between one another....

Yes, why not have sex if it is something that is natural between two people.
