"Borders of an absolute? "

Is there a problem with that ? ...

an absolute MUST have defined borders ... and if they are long established they should be easy to define ...

Like ... if you lose your virginity and are not married you are going to hell ...

Is there a problem with that being a Moral Absolute ?

Not at all, I apologise, mis-understood you. There always must be a defining line. In the context of Church teaching, the losing of your virginity before marriage is a sin. That is clearly defined. Murder is also a sin (in all it's forms). I was mearly demonstrating how the Church's teaching on abortion has not changed, nor can it be since it a commandment of God and not subject to revision.
