Do you discount the Ten Commandments then ? How about all that is in the OT ?

If you try to refute me, with that os saw, about the Christ surplanting all that is in the OT, let me remind you, that JESUS did NOT come to replace the Jewish religion ! HE, HIMSELF, said that HE came to return to it / fulfill what is in the OT ! That being said, you just can NOT decide what GOD is , or is not, yourself. You have to have something upon which to base your beliefs and opinions. The Bible is THAT source.

No matter what the PHYSICAL maturity , of a child is, a 15 year old IS a CHILD / MINOR ! Even IF he is DYING, consentutal ( but, in THIS case it is PAID for ! ) sexual congress, between an adult and a child, IS child molestation. I suspect that you are much too close in age, to this now dead boy , to be able to remove yourself from this case. If and when, you become a parent, you just might see things differently. At least I hope that ae and maturity, will over ride hormonal memory, and common sense will take over.

I know from my personal experiences. That is what I base my life.

I do believe in the 10 commandments and the two Great Commandments.

And is the young man going to Hell, that's not for me to decide, but I do not believe he is, strictly for what has happened in this one case.

I do not consider the young man a child(12 and younger is a child, 13-17 not a child, not an adult). I'll also say that I believe that one of the major problems in society today is that people want to keep raising the age of maturity, but that's another discussion.

I'm divided on what has happened. On one hand, I'm not a personal fan of prostitution, but on the other hand, I do believe in giving a dying young man his wish if it isn't going to directly negativly affect another person.
