Its all an act. These people use religion as a mechanism to feel superior over their fellow man. They talk the good talk... but they don't walk the walk.

The problem I have is this:

While not Biblical, the story of Lucifer's fall had something to do with God revealing His plan, which included angels bending their knee to the incarnate God. Lucifer decided that there was no way that he, high and mighty, could bend his knee to worship that, and rebelled.

Additionally, it is said that Lucifer ( now Satan ) stands before the throne of God, accusing and condemning men for their faults and failings( for the Biblical retorts, which will probably come, please refer to the story of Job ) until that time when God says, " No more. ".

It might just be me, but I see a parallel here. Do I condone encouraging young men to be set up with hookers? No. But, in this case, it appears that this teenager wasn't really concerned with getting his rocks off, but more with experiencing a part of ( God given, I might add )human sexuality that he knew he would not have a chance to do in the short time he had. I cannot see the justification in condemning the boy ( and quoting Bible verses to justify the personal condemnation of the boy--well, it is said that the Devil can quote the Bible as well as any great biblical scholar ).
