I suggest you try to find at least one here on earth over 18, (impossible)

May be it is true with the Christians or Atheists in the West; in the East, there would be overwhelming majority of the women. It is possible where men and women don't mix up freely. It is for this that Mary as seen in the Catholic Churches is dressed fully and was a virgin and she did not mix up with the mix-gatherings.
That is truly Christian, if they understand
You have no idea what you are talking about, and I don't have much of an idea either.
I would like to point out however that the word 'virgin' is not only applicable when referring to women. Men can also be virgins, and I have a male friend who didn't lose his 'v' plates until 25.
Not that there is anything wrong with losing your virginity before 18, seeing as the legal age of consent in most western societies is 16. I was having intercourse at that age and nothing bad happened to me.
I have no children, no STDs, and it didn't turn me into some insane sexual predator. Different people are ready at different times, and they should be afforded to the freedom of choice. To a certain degree of course.
I was of the opinion that there is an entire movement involving you people in America who 'pledge' to remain celibate until marriage... and that this involved people of all religions and irreligion.
And why should women be expected to remain virgins, yet men are permitted to bemoan some sort of chronic shortage of fresh meat - which it appears you are doing now.
Are you familiar with nuns? Apparently there are 59000 in the US. You would have a hard time finding a nun who spreads her legs, although I am sure that they exist.
Men and women both should have slef control till they marry as a principle; it does no harm and is apprciable.
Well there are plenty of people who disagree with you in more liberal and open minded societies.
In progressive societies, such as the UK, it is more than acceptable to bonk whoever you like without getting married. And I like it that way.
Just because your ideals object to sex before marriage, doesn't mean that other peoples should. We are all entitled to our own beliefs.
That doesn't change the fact that you are completely wrong in your original post, there are millions of virgins on this planet and many of them have no religion.
Why should me sleeping with my girlfriend have any effect on you? What issue do you have with a man you will never meet sleeping with a woman that you will never meet? In a country that you will probably never visit? I have no problem with you remaining a virgin, so why have a problem with me having a quick shag with the lights on in the privacy of my own home, behind lock and key, and with the curtains closed?
You shouldn't.
I don't mind if you or others disagree with me.
I was telling the Christians; men should be like Jesus of Quran; and the women should be like Mary of Quran; only because Quran presents the real Jesus.
Mythichal Jesus and Mary of the Church has drifted away the Christians from the teachings of Jesus as well as his acts. Jesus and Mary should be the ideals of the people in the West, in my opinions.
The Atheists Skeptics could have Jesus and Mary as their ideals also if they are convinced heart and soul; no compulsion however.
And what is the different between Mary & Jesus in the Bible and Mary & Jesus in the Q'uran?
Seeing as Mary was a virgin in the bible too? Hence the Christians worship of 'The Virgin Mary'
Mary isn't exactly depicted in the bible as some sort of floozy who gets drunk and bangs people down alleyways is she? Even I know that, and I am irreligious.
I'm just going to dove-tail here.
I was a virgin up until like a week ago, and I'm 20 years old (and I'm a male).
I subjectively believe we ought to be picky about who we have sex with, since I feel our souls do mix a little. It's romantic that way.
I'm really glad I'm in a relationship with the girl who took my "V card," but I refuse to pass judgment on anyone who chooses differently.
These types of issues will split the Republican vote. (Sorry to make this political, but) has anyone noticed how conservatives and libertarians split on social issues? It's like some republicans are becoming—oh, God, should I speak this blasphemy!?—liberal.
Christians should know all sin has been remised and forgiven by the sacrifice of Jesus (as that's an important story in the faith, as I understand it). They're being silly about persecuting women who have sex before marriage. They are more than welcome to suggest abstinence until commitment, but it seems hypocritical to demonize those who don't follow their advice. After all, "He who is without sin should cast the 1st stone."
Thanks,
Dan
I believe that the original poster has more of an issue with those who have sex before marriage. By the sounds of it, that includes you.
I also lost my virginity to a girl with whom I was in a relationship, I have been with my current partner for 3 and a half years. But I also have friends who sleep with a different girl each week, as long as nobody is getting hurt... who cares?
Not anybody elses business, unless they did it in the middle of the street.
it does not matter about this Parr, what so ever.
it does not take away from the Guys or the Girls heart, strength and sole.
SO WHAT!
I was a virgin at 18. I renounced religion at 13 and have no high morals to speak of.
Or am I a special exception?
I have some friend that were virgins till thier thirties and got married....
...of course i look outside of my world....how many of the men are also virgins?....just as many as the women?....and if not, why not?.....
well many believe , it's their opinion, that saving yourself for that one person you will marry is special and no thoughts of previous people will be in your head.
it's complex i wrote a hub on it :pure love
Self control till one marries with one's spouse is appreciable.
Finding a virgin on Earth; possible
It is time that instead of the mythical Jesus invented by Paul and the Church; the West supports the real Jesus who is not ascetic; he marries and has children and has the self control; that is for the men.
The women are like Mary mother of Jesus; they have self control and dress up like her and love her and her model.
Then finding a virgin or more or many virgins won't be a problem.
standard joke i heard growing up in New England.
why was Jesus not born in Rome at the time?
they could not find 3 wise men and a Virgin!!!! lol

Why do Catholics believe Mary, the mother of Jesus, remained a virgin throughout her life?First of all, please know that this question has zero sarcastic intent. Recently, I listened to Catholic radio and the response to this same question was that the New Testament does refer to Jesus' brothers,...

I tell you reality Tv has really gone beyond madness..I was watching this show entitled "Break Point". Its about a 44 year old man who claims to be a complete virgin to the point that he has never even kissed a girl or hugged one (apart from his sister and mum) in his entire life. So he...
