Allend, I doubt many here (at least among those who believe in sin) would argue that what the boy did was right. Pre-marital sex is wrong for a Christian -- no denying that.
However, there's nobody I know of (ok, one, but leave Him out of it) who is sinless. All have sinned, right? Does that mean nobody can have salvation? Was Christ crucified in vain?

The safest thing to do with thread is not respond.
Having seen the responses, though I can say this:
Some days it is really hard to buy into the "man is a rational being" thing.

I'm not sure I've met a Christian that apologizes for his sins before they happen (i.e. I'm sorry I'm going to blaspheme tomorrow. I'm sorry I'm going to rob an old lady tomorrow). I think you're supposed to recognize that sin is wrong, and not do it.
