To: deepFR; Revelation 911
Whoa. Re-read the article. The articles in that Bible don't encourage young girls to engage in sexual activity; very much the opposite, it conveys that the Bible says that its wrong outside of the bounds of the marriage relationship.

The simple fact of the matter is that teenagers these days talk about sex, and are engaging in it. They are ceaselessly bombarded with sexual images and messages in their media. It must be forthrightly addressed. Getting young girls to read what the Bible says about sex - and being frank about it in the contexts in which they are likely to be pressured - is only a good thing.

Exactly. People read the article thread title and didnt bother to read the actual article. The translation doesnt give the free pass on the activity. It clearly shows from the article that it condemns the activities as wrong, but in a narrative that a teen would understand. that is all.
