Once they are convinced that “everyone’s doing it”, they don’t see a reason to wait. As I have always said, no one is sorry they waited but plenty are sorry they didn’t.

Well, it’s CNN. This must be accurate information. No agenda there. /s

The pop culture gets to them too, they go to publik skoolz and they watch prime time TV.

It is time we conservatives get actively involved in taking them down for real.

“Relevant magazine”

I’m sure that’s a conservative, biblical publication /Sarc

The oldest lie in the book “well, everyone else is doing it”

My husband and I both waited and we enjoyed our wedding night and lots of great nights (and days) in our 26 years of marriage. Plus, we raised our kids to also wait and as of this writing my daughter (24) and my son (22) have also waited and both feel that their love for the Lord allows them to wait upon HIS provision of a mate.

Of course I don’t believe this is true for a second coming from CNN. Their agenda is to normalize child sex in any and every way possible and to make parents give up.

If the kid is old enough to have sex, he/she is old enough to move out and live on their own.

I always find it weird when the media refers to Christians as a third party. Aren’t we a Christian majority nation still (even if it’s only on paper)? You’d never hear people talk like this decades ago.

because nearly everyone, even most of her Christian friends, were having sex

Shallow as a toenail.

Nice for their claims that they found a Christian (? — not familiar with Relevant) magazine to apparently back them up. I wonder if the MSM was involved with the studies. Though even better-respected firms like Barna (of Frog In The Kettle fame) have long born the sad witness that other marital dysfunction such as divorce is virtually as common in the USA among people calling themselves Christian as among the unchurched.

The MSM and schoolz are doing everything they can to give kids the impression that everyone else is doing it.

What did the teacher on GLEE called girls who didn’t want sex on Valentines, oh thats right “cold fish”.

Worst show on TV, or one of them. Don’t let your kids watch TV.

It’s not that they are waiting, but rather they can’t.

Presumably that means from birth, or maybe from conception... as if for most of a childhood the child would normally care. Still, being a virgin that late isn’t common. Even if autoeroticism isn’t counted, it’s also uncommon for men to be virgins that late.

Did you find it hard?

What kind of a question is that?

RELEVANT was first published in 2003. The magazine explores the intersection of faith and pop culture with the tagline "God. Life. Progressive Culture."
