Thanks to everyone who played last week's inaugural edition of the "Tuesday Two." Last week, Sarah of "Life or Something Like It~ LIVE from the U" was the first person ever to play the "Tuesday Two!"
For those who didn't see it last week, the concept for this one is pretty simple: there is one topic, two different questions to choose from, but you pick the one you want to answer and answer only that one.
In your answer, be sure to indicate whether you're answering "A" or "B."
THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: PREMARTIAL SEX
QUESTION A:
Do you think that sex before marriage is ever acceptable? Is it ever acceptable or is it accepted? I was taught that sex was unacceptable except between a husband and wife. But…it is and was so widely acceptable for everyone to be “doing it”, who do you listen to? Most kids and young adults fall prey and listen to their peers. “Everyone’s doing it” after all. And, what we’ve seen, especially in the medical profession, are younger and younger victims of STDs, pregnancy, and victims of sexual crimes. So…I believe that we should revert back to the old standard teaching of our parents and the church and teach premarital sex is unacceptable, and hopefully we can begin to reverse this downward trend. I know I’ve told my daughter the truth about my history. But, I’ve also encouraged her to “wait”.

QUESTION B:
If your kids should ask your thoughts on premarital sex, would you feed the need to "fudge" your answer so they wouldn't find out that you didn't follow your own advice?

Totally agree with you; I think we need to emphasize too the Biblical importance of it - because kids are not going to be abstinent until they know why the Lord wants them to be. But if you don't have that faith, then its hard to get across the message of waiting because of the influence of the world.
