Well you were addressing me. Why won't you address what I have actually said?

I offered my answer on page 1. And you sidestepped it. And you're still sidestepping it on page 3.

the reason FMF, the reason, try stating the reason. Is it so much to ask? how silly of
me to have assumed that you might have been following the thread and caught void
spirits comments and managed to put them into context of the thread as a whole.

you're not listening. look up a few posts, i listed adultery is a derivative of a social contract.

it's not just "adultery" in you book. it's a coercion. the "law" gives only one formula of how a person should behave and no choice is left to the person; that sexual relations must be excluded to be between a man and a woman; and that the two individuals must be "married" under a contractual obligation and that violation of the contract results in execution.

it's a series of laws that controls the sexuality of people and such laws are immoral. you cannot legally mandate a person's sexuality.

further, you listed that other people are involved in "adultery." this is not always the case. all sex outside of marriage is considered "adultery." this means that any two couples who have sex outside of marriage are committing adultery by your book. and if you go by what christ said, even thinking about it is adultery. woe unto all those teenagers!

Voidspirit and I are different posters. We have said different things. Why are you refusing to discuss my answer to your question?

so your objection is that it limits sexual freedom within the bounds of marraige and
limits it to between a man and a women. Is it unreasonable to ask persons to refrain
from pre marital sex and to remain faithful to their partner after marraige, if so, why.

If 'God forbids it' is all you've got with regard to homosexuality, why would anyone who does not subscribe to your belief system think it was anything other than "unreasonable"?

no, you proffered opinions, you have only substantiated those opinions in your latest
text, that it limits sexual activity. You have not stated why this might be a reasonable
request or otherwise.
