Why? Because people are waiting to get married. I'm probably going to be smited by God then because I'm going to get a MBA degree before I even think about getting married (which'll put me at perhaps twenty-eight if I even find a good match).

You sure started a firestorm. In 1994 we saw the rejection of new deal liberalism. Now we are witnessing the rejection of turn-back-the-clock to the 1800's conservatism, and a lot of folks here don't like it. Their normative proscriptions are as irrelevant to modern day problems as the old-time machine politics liberals are.

Folks around here need to get a clue. It isn't that they don't like liberals telling them what to do. They don't like anyone with their hands on the levers of power telling them what to do.

No.

Because you choose to fornicate, of course (if you're putting yourself in the place of women who are apt to have babies outside of marriage).

Sin is called "sin" for many reasons -- many consequences that are harmful. Of course that's the way it is. It is disobeying God. Makes sense, eh?

Trust me, getting married young is way, way WAY underrated. My Dad was just short of twenty when he married my Mom and I was 22 when I married Rambette. When it comes to love and raising young kids, there's a lot to be said for the energy of the young!
