Sex, Love, and the Culture of Death we live in.


Why is the world completely obsessed with sex? Did you ever think that maybe STDs would not exist if people only had sex with one person? After all, how can you spread a sexually transmitted disease if you only have sex with one person? Maybe that’s why you shouldn’t have sex outside of marriage, and perhaps that’s why marriage is supposed to be a lifelong commitment? But of course there’s always “safe sex”. You know, contraceptives. So what if they kill your child, alter your cycle, have numerous health risks such as cancer and infertility, or just put a physical barrier between true love.
 America, and the rest of the world for that matter, is quickly becoming the culture of death. We have turned sex from being a beautiful act of selfless love into an act of selfishness, focusing only on the physical pleasure that we can gain from it.
It is my ultimate goal in life to have a family of my own someday. When I get married I want to be able to say to my spouse that I waited for her and saved myself solely for her because she deserves no less.
A friend of mine was walking on campus when he overheard the conversation of two girls in front of him. One of them said to the other, “I did three guys last night, does that make me a whore?”  The other one replied, “no, it would have be at least four.”
The above dialect is absolutely appalling. It seems that most people in this country have no sense of moral decency.  
There are two parties at fault for this. The first one is the public school teachers. They teach about the “importance” of the so called “safe sex” and educate students about being healthy, but they don’t teach about abstinence or waiting until marriage. Secondly are the parents of the children. They fail miserably because most of them don’t feel comfortable talking to their kids about sex and leave it up to the teachers, believing that they are doing a good job of it.
I can only hope that I do a better job with my own kids if I am blessed enough to have any. I want to home school them so I can teach them the importance of waiting to have sex until they are married and also the importance of treating women with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Chastity and purity are two of the most beautiful things there are. It’s a shame that so many people just throw them away.
