By the way: true purity goes much further than just the medical definition of a virgin. Purity is a physical condition which includes that definition, but it is also a state or condition of the heart which includes much more than not touching someone romantically. It includes not allowing yourself to lust after someone, give your heart away to someone who is not going to be your husband or wife, not touching people in a romantic way, etc.

So basically, the moment you feel attracted to someone you have to marry them?
I mean, otherwise you might be in love with someone for a while before realising you're not meant for each other- and that would be 'giving your heart' to someone who isn't going to be your spouse!
Or do fundies magically know who they're going to marry and never fall in love until they meet that person?
Or (and I suspect this may be the right answer) do fundies not actually love anyone or anything other than their own delusions, and just get married to the first woman crazy enough to not run away?
So, purity is one of those states no one can achieve since it is impossible to know in advance of giving your heart away who will be the person to marry you.
Or is this just some clever ploy to get gullible people primed to buy those Purity Crystal Balls (tm) that you're getting ready to market?
(1) Breathing in oxygen is a sin - truly sick!
If I'm not mistaken, "virgin" really isn't a medical diagnosis, since there is no 100% way to tell if a woman has not had sex, and certainly no way to determine if a man has had sex or not.
If fundies are so hung up against sexuality, why must they continue breeding?
Irony is a harsh mistress...
"If fundies are so hung up against sexuality, why must they continue breeding?"
Because marriage and having children is the only non-sinful outlet for their sinful urges. Funny, that.
Now, if we could convince them all sex is sinful, they might go the way of the Shakers.
Hey! A modern day Puritan! I thought they went extinct shortly after the 1600s, who would have thought we'd one day find a surviving specimen of this archaic species...
Further study is required.
And, suddenly, one day Nostradamus will tell them who's gonna be the person they're going to spend the rest of their lives with. Bro, WAKE UP!
Subsribe to the beliefs, end up in a crappy relationship.
or
Go through dates and relationships, figure out exactly what you want in a significant other, end up in a healthy and satisfying relationship.
HOWEVER WILL I CHOOSE?
yes, there actually are people out there who don't have their first kiss (ever) until they're at the altar on their wedding day, and then (supposedly) have sex for the first time later that night.
some people just don't know how to have fun.
And yet you spend your day's talking about sex with teenage girls.
Fuck the porn sites, shit like this is what gets blocked on my network.
Hm. Looks like my friend's not a virgin then, going his grade six year's play of "Romeo and Juliet".
Nice one. This guy's BroRandy, right?
So, you're saying "let's ban sex. It can lead to dance". I will slightly modify and paraphrase Jesus. Abstinence was made for the people, not people for abstinence. When the Bible commands no sex before marriage is for preventing STDs, unwanted pregnancies, etc.........Some people even go that far as to be that prudes because they think that it enables abstinence. What sane people don't do is thinking that STDs and unwanted pregnancies are there to prevent sex. It's not the other way round. If two people dance, give their hearts or do any of the above things, and don't FINALLY have sex, the unwanted pregnancies and STDs that are meant to be prevented by doing what you say are not going to happen(moreover, if they use properly protection, it doesn't happen either). Simple as that. And without those things, what's the objective "evil" they do?. It makes no fucking sense.
"It includes not allowing yourself to lust after someone, give your heart away to someone who is not going to be your husband or wife," So if you have an organ donor card, make ABSOLUTELY SURE you tell them your heart is NOT INCLUDED in the package, unless the recipient is your spouse. Livers and kidneys are fair game, though.
King Solomon, builder of the Temple, and God appointed King of Israel, only gave his heart away to his wife in the Bible, 700 TIMES. Oops, I forgot his 300 concubines, the guy had a big heart. Apparently in the old days God's standard for his chosen was different
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
