Dayton, imagine you're back in time, unmarried but dating your future wife. You're a virgin because, you know, that must have been cool back in the 90's or something, but I digress. So someone holds a gun to your head and you have one of two choices (three, really, if you count death). 1) You can have premarital sex with your wife. Don't worry no one would watch. It would be on your own terms. The only catch is you can't get married first. All the ministers are busy fucking children and the court clerks are on three hour lunches. OR 2) You can hit your wife the next time she becomes uppity toward you. Your choice. Which would you rather do.
Number two. Because I can avoid having premarital sex and of course get to marry my beloved lady and spend the rest of our lives together. And your OP allows me the option of reducing any level of violence to insignificance.
After all the trolling, you'd still go on record, preferring to hit your wife than have premarital sex? What planet are you from?
You horrid, horrid disgusting little man. No woman should ever be hit. And fuck you for using your bullshit religion as the rational behind it. As I said in the other thread, the bible also says this.... That means don't fucking beat them you completely loathesome cunt.
He'd rather hit his wife than get laid knowing he's going to marry the woman. I wish I could say I'm shocked.
Yeah, that's why you beat your life. Needed to defend yourself against a chuch going fearsome young woman did you? You coward.
The way you see it "sex" is good. "Violence" is bad. Life is not so simple. Hitting someone (except in self defense) is a sin. Thus if I hit someone, I've sinned and placed my soul in jeopardy. Premarital sex is a sin. But because it involves another person, that one sin would place two souls in jeopardy, mine and the female in question. Thus, the only way to protect the soul of your partner and have no responsiblity for the loss of her soul is to choose the sin option that endangers only my own soul.
I feel like having a gun to your head would remove your theological culpability, since you are not exercising free will to do either choice. The only question is which action would cause less consequence in this world. Give your future wife an orgasm, or a bruise?
Three questions Faceman. 1) Why do you find it so hard to believe that people believe premarital sex is a sin? 2) Why do you find it so hard to believe that some people can do things they regret more than a decade later? 3) Do you define everyone by something bad they did that caused no harm more than a decade ago? If I were a gambling man I would say you make snide remarks and avoid answering all three questions.
I don't find it hard to believe. This country is full of stupid people. I try to believe you regret what you did but...then you just say you'd do it again. And minimize it. Which suggests you don't actually take personal responsibility for it. See, you minimized it. And no, I don't define you by that one act. I have plenty of other things to define you by and I do. And you'd have just lost your bet! You're even bad at gambling!
What is religion isn't real? If it's not, then sex becomes a reproductive act that is unrelated to a wedding ring. Wife beating, on the other hand, is an direct act of aggression, that results in pain and fear, and often is taken out against someone weaker tahn yourself. Is this realy that hard to work out Dayton?
The rule says that you can't use them as avatars or sigs. The rule does not say that you can't repost a picture in the body of a thread itself. Indeed, Scorp's adaption of my photoshopped picture of John Castle is quite happily sitting in the WF quote thread without it being against the rules. Dayton's picture has been posted in the Red Room, ergo it can be used.
I'm confused, was the question "never marry your wife" or was it "no one can marry you at that moment, therefore the sex must be premarital." Because I read it as "never marry your wife," and that's asking a lot, hoping a man wouldn't choose to marry his wife.
