The destructive effects of fornication are built into our design by the Creator.

So is the natural desire to marry at age 14.

This vast anti-Creation experiment of unmarried persons of the opposite sex working together and living in proximity outside of their father’s homes in their millions from ages 18-30, while remaining unmarried, is not working to the Creator’s purpose and has had the entirely predictable consequence.

Whether someone is “Evangelical” or “Catholic” or “Just Christian”, to frustrate the Creator’s purpose for the sexual faculty for 10-15 years while it is strongest is a formula for disaster, which is what we have.

Your entire post bears repeating!

So what do you propose be done? Segregate men and women? Cover the women in burkas? What? You never heard of self-control?

Are people just animals who can't help themselves?

The natural desire for sex beings in the early teen years, but that is not the same as the natural desire to marry. Additionally, a girl's body is not mature enough physically to handle pregnancy until she's about 18.

Blaming the culture for an individual's poor life choices is blame shifting and enabling.
