Perhaps you didn't read the thread from the beginning. Prayers have been offered up, and I've had this wee one on my daily prayer list since I first heard about her disappearance. Talk about assumptions. And--any marriage should be considered a sacred bond. Even civil ceremonies usually use that term. If you are not ready to settle down with one partner for life, perhaps it's not yet time to get married. There's nothing wrong with waiting until both people are ready for such a commitment.

It has been interesting watching how this thread has gone. It has gone from a post about a missing seven year old girl to people either condemning or defending a degenerate lifestyle. This thread shows the depth of corruptness in our society.

The First Amendment to the Constitution was designed to avoid a theocracy from becoming the form of government for the US. While you have every right to believe as you do, and to practice however you wish to practice, those rights belong to those people who do not share your views on morality every bit as much as they belong to you.

As a society we have defined certain boundaries, one being the age of sexual consent. People are not allowed to have sex with minors because as a society, we find this to be repulsive, and have made that action illegal.

There is nothing illegal about "swinging". It does not fit in with my beliefs, but I do not impose my beliefs on others. As a matter of fact, I defend the rights of others to believe differently than I do.

All in all, regardless of the parent's acrions, the criminal here is the person who took the little girl, the parent's sexual preferences did not give him (or her) license to abduct a child.
