Holding hands; putting your arm around each other; hugging; etc. All touching should be avoided. If separated, clean, God loving teens don't avoid touching each other, they will have to try to avoid fornication!

I don't know, this post makes me want to cuddle with some christian teens.
And as we all know, holding hands leads directly to the back seat of dad's car! It would have been easier if god simply hadn't given us hands (or cars). There you have it, another screw up for the bible god.
Very good, we have the prude of the month. After all, didn´t Jesus say that it´s the things within, not OUT what make us unclean?. Touching is not the question, man. If I don´t touch a man who is agonising due to a car crash, he will die. I would sin, if we go deeper.
Yep, you should never touch anyone. Ever. That way, when you get married like a good christian boy/girl, you'll get hurled into the idea of being physically intimate with someone with absolutely zero prior knowledge and no way to get out of it if it doesn't work, thus ensuring that you end up leading a messed-up rest of your life.
"If separated, clean, God loving teens don't avoid touching each other, they will have to try to avoid fornication!"What? If they are separated, isn't the touching "problem" taken care of?
Physical contact is part of our language, it's one of the easiest ways to comfort and reassure someone you care about. I can't imagine it's in any way healthy to avoid touching.
Wait! hand holding mught lead to DANCING?
AND:
I clicked the for "Truth4Teens," it's an awful site. Not only is the site design horrible, but also promotes the "KJV only, don't do anything even remotely pagan" branch of Christianity. The fact that they link to Jack Chick's web site only makes it worse.
hmmm interesting. this article quotes 1 Corinthians 7:1, which according to them says "it is good for a man and woman not to touch", but in my NIV bible it says "It is good for a man not to marry". Not that these fundies would ever accept this since it's not the KJV, but something to think about.
Hugging/holding hands is fornication eh? At that rate, i should have had 200+ kids by all different fathers. WHERE IS THE NUMBER FOR MAURY?!?
*Shakes head, and watches her IQ drop slowly*
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
