Why is this even necessary? This is already Church teaching.

Chastity until marriage (the real thing, not some gay sham “marriage” created by a few power-hungry judges) is an excellent choice. Not everyone has enough virtue and will to make that decision, but it is the right decision. For the rest of us, it is nice that we are still forgiven.

Now who’s being a Bedroom Czar? Isn’t this the group always saying ‘Stay out of my bedroom and my body!!!” Yet, they wish to legislate the personal actions of free men and women. Keep digging.
To: Pollster1
A lot of people don’t understand the difference between chastity and celibacy. Married people are called to be chaste but not celibate.

Surely you jest. Every teaching needs re-teaching. It needs continual teaching.

Here’s the thing. If it is already Church teaching we don’t need Synod to discuss it. It is Church teaching. Period. This Synod is about discussing things that do not need to be discussed at all.
Got it??
Now go back to not responding to me.

You are mistaken.
Courage is NOT the group always saying "Stay out of my bedroom and my body!!!"
As for "personal actions of free men and women," only virtuous actions are truly free. Freedom consists in having the right and the power to do what you ought.

When I moved into a leadership position with a conservative Protestant church, I had to certify to my chastity.

Homosexuals are into any EXCEPT chastity.

Your “God Bless you”’s come across so insincere.

Very true, Jack. I don’t know what I was thinking - all this bad weather is getting to me I guess...

Chastity is already the Church teaching.

What? “Heterosexuals” aren’t all chaste? What is up with that!

So you oppose their call for the church to stick to its traditional teaching on sexual morality?
To: marshmallow
“I fear that chastity does not have enough of a voice at the Synod,
Absolutely. The Church has been swamped by Freudianism, which means that genital sex is all.
There have been many very, very happy and productive people in the history of this planet who haven’t been sleeping with (euphemism) anybody at all.

I assume you’re being sarcastic with that comment.
