Isn't that against the Bible, Jesus, and/or the Church?

OK I'm talking about people who call themselves "Christian" and don't even try to wait until they're married. Fornicate every Saturday and go to Church every Sunday, if you catch my drift. Why do those people even bother calling themselves "Christian"?

Yeah....and?
It's a sin...we all sin, even "Christians" sin...but we ask for forgiveness and we get it.

Being a Christian doesn't make you free from sin. Fornication is a sin. For myself, I didn't have a strong faith and didn't really know much about the Bible before I was married. I knew I believed in Jesus, but none of the details of what that meant. I think that holds true for many young Christians. I also think there is a direct corelation to increase of sexual images and advertising in the last 2 or 3 decades. It's hard to get away from it when it's staring you in the face all the time. If I knew then what I know now, I would have made a different choice, but hindsight is always 20/20.

There are so many christians regularly having sex before marriage because:
1)they do not know or do not.The maker of adultery/fornication should be punished by thrawing stones to them 100 times obey to the prohibition in the Bible that adultery is strictly prohibited
2)they do not believe that adultering or fornicating will get great sin
3)they believe that adultery/fornication is not allowed but they can easily ask forgiveness to God
In islamic teaching,adultery/fornication is not allowed too.According to the holy Qur'an.they should be punished by thrawing stones 100 times.Adultery/fornication is criminal act that can be caught and jailed.in some countries..But someone who did it will not be forgiven by God if he/she did. again the same fault..In Islam asking forgiveness from God will be permitted only when we do not do the same fault or wrong doing.

Since when does the Bible, Jesus or Church stop Christian's from behaving like all the people they claim to be better than?
Just goes to prove how hypocritical their religion is... invent rules, and then make additional rules that allow for the breaking of the former rules, since we know perfectly well we aren't going to obey the original rules in the first place.

the real answer with all my respect for the others they think that doing a terrible sin like having sex before marriage is some kind of being human cause human usually sin in my opinion that's some kind of being animals and not respecting for being civilized humans and not respecting for the woman which is used to justify the man desire and after that they believe that their god will simply forgive them!!!!!!! i don't no what a hell are they thinking so i can have a sex with a girl or Rib a girl or steal money or even kill some one and then say I'm human and god will forgive me and that way I'm religious and civilized and i respect woman that's for sorry the christian do today after they change they true religion that told that Jesus is a messenger and prophet from god and he is not a god .I'm Muslim and I'm proud of that and i believe in Jesus and Muhammad and all the prophets and they say that we don't respect woman and they blame us for we can marry 4 woman so what is worse having sex like i want with any numbers of girl or to committed in respectable relationship as marriage with just 4 woman and that's is very rare now as most of the Muslims now just marry one woman and they never have sex with any other woman before or after the marriage i hope that i help and sorry for talking to much about my religion I'm just loving my religion and I'm so proud to be a Muslim

Yes its against the Bible and I don't know what the number is.
I don't know the answer.
I do know that large numbers of people who think they are Christians because their parents are or because they think they were baptized as babies, really aren't Christians.
And that is so sad.
Which is why I preach and teach that Infant Baptism is child abuse.

Because everyone has been born into sin those Christians are the sheep that have strayed away but the shepherd is looking for them to bring him back to the herd

Christians are still human and fight hard against their flesh. Sometimes they cave into their sin of lust. Should we sin just because we know that the sin would be forgiven absolutely not.

Brian's answer completely exemplifies why I disdain this faith. "I can do whatever I want, even if it's a sin, as long as I ask forgiveness."
How convenient, and what a freakin' cop out.

If christians say with whom they have first sex with there is no harm.
They are automatically married.

And?
That's not going to stop anyone, if they are just Christians in name only... which many are.
