Dying 13-year-old boy wants sex

Post #1

Post by RobertUrbanek »

Aside from legality, if a dying 13-year-old boy wanted sex with an attractive woman, would it be immoral to arrange for his wish to be fulfilled?

Would your answer be different if the dying teen was a girl or gay or lesbian?

Brings to mind:

"(I Just) Died in Your Arms" is the title of a song written by Nick Van Eede and introduced by his band, Cutting Crew, in 1986.

Morality is up to the individual, so for me no (assuming it was my child).

are you asking from christianity's point of view? if so, then it's immoral. the boy who lusts in his heart, if he doesn't repent from his lust, will be thrown to hell. doesn't really matter if the boy goes through with the sex or not. the lust itself makes him sinful, and therefore, hell.

The question was whether it was immoral or not. The question has absolutely nothing to do with hell. If you would take me up on the offer there is an issue in your post that I would like to debate with you one on one. I would promise to only use scripture out of the book of Romans for the entire debate.

That's why I specifically state that my answer is from bible's point of view. When someone says moral or not, there are usually 2 possibilities of moral standard : divine standard and human standard. I'm just giving the christian standard. Hell is just the implication of the sin. I assume that you're christian? but, okay, I dont mind debating. I'm sure I can learn something new. Tell me how. But I may only be able to reply at most once a day. will that be a problem? I'm currently engaged in a new project in my job.

Yes, I am Christian, fundamentalist mostly, but my view on salvation is very different from yours. I will set up a debate in the one-on-one forum probably this weekend and send you a PM when it is ready for you to respond. I expect to learn something as well.
